My Book Essential External Hard Drive

When I connect my external hard drive, the WD device does not come up on the screen or Task Bar.

i am looking for the latest WD software to reload to my PC. 

Where can i find it?

Hello Coocie,

Welcome to the WD Community,

Are you able to check within the disk management to see how is the drive showing?

All software and application for your drive can be downloaded from the WD Support site depending on the model number of your drive.
