how to open my passport for mac on windows 10

There are some major causes of this issue that should be taken care of to prevent this scare. Unfortunately, many people have been facing the 'WD passport not showing up' issue.

Update: I can no longer even plug the HD into the computer, because when I plug it in it plays the little 'Device Connected' chime, then the computer gives me the BSOD withe the same error.'I have been using WD my passport for some time. None of the Windows updates seem to fix it, and I seem to be unable to find any driver fixes from apple.

When I first saw this I safely ejected the HD, and I got the BSOD with an error of KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE.

When I go to open the HD, it gives me an error I have never seen before, Invalid Parameters.

Doesn't show a Windows Explorer popup appears with the contents of the HD.Īfter this I go to Windows Explorer manually and try to open it.

Shows the notification asking what I want to do with the HD, I close it.

When I plug it into my MacBook with Windows 10 running, it: I made sure this HD would and does work in Windows 10 by plugging it into another laptop I have running only Windows 10, and it worked fine there. I just installed Windows 10 on my MacBook (Early 2015, OSX El Capitan 10.11.2), and after everything set up I tried to plug in my External Hard Drive.
