[GUI-Talk] Recognition of External Drive

[Debbi Williamson]

I tried what was suggested--going to folder options and unchecking the
hidden drives thing.  It didn't change or correct the issue I am having.  I
still cannot access the external hard drives that plug into my USB  ports.
Again, I hear the sound that leads me to believe the drives are connected
but I can't see them or their contents.
