So there must be some ideas that catch the point. Based on this, I decide to make a list of the possible reasons and useful suggestions for users to refer to. Here, I have summarized 4 main causes as well as the solutions in Windows 7 through internet searching and actual operations.
Here are 4 solutions to unhide them. Possible cause 2 — there are file system errors. In some cases, the files may be not showing in external hard drive because the file system is corrupted or because it doesn't contain a recognized file system. At this time, you had better recover data from external hard drive firstly.
Sometimes the mirror image in memory is damaged and the operating system does not respond a timely refresh, which happens by chance. How to fix: restart the computer and then reconnect the external hard drive to check if the actual files are shown.
That's all for the solutions. In fact, each solution has helped many users get rid of files not showing in external hard drive problem, and I also hope they are helpful for you. But what's the real story? How exactly did they disappear? These kinds of questions are all over the internet. The following mentioned examples are just a drop in the bucket. Faced with such confusion, most users behave like ants on hot bricks, while some users skillfully find that if they try to type the path or address of a specific folder, it opens.
However, typically you have stored large numbers of files and folders in the external hard drive and you cannot remember all names of folders…So any better idea? Different from internal hard drive, an external hard drive is a portable storage device that can be attached to a computer via USB, eSATA , or Firewire.
External hard drives typically have high storage capacities and are often used to back up computers. Having our videos, pictures and other large files copied to an external hard drive is a safe way to back up things. Besides, external hard drive is always acting as a data storage medium and transmission medium, thus you don't have to carry on computers with you everywhere.
External hard drive enjoys many advantages when compared to other storage devices, so they are getting more and more closely to our daily life.
Today people are accustomed to bring an external hard drive with us in case of data transmission, such as to deal with working paper between office and home. By using external hard drive, you can avoid the network requirement, the uploading and downloading process, and time. But, if your families share one computer with you at home, there will be a big risk of data loss.
Although my tv uses this hard drive in USB 2. That's good to hear, Rodopica. My TV is a Samsung Series 5, though. Will it work fine on my TV also? Rick17 Explorer. All forum topics Previous Topic Next Topic. Accepted Solutions. Phil12 Voyager. Regards Phil.
