Hi Fellwalker. I’m sorry to say that EMC Retrospect Express HD 2.0 is not Windows 7 compatible. I recommend connecting the drive to a Windows 2000, XP, or Vista computer and restore all of your data into a folder on the root of a drive/share. Then, when you access the drive on your Windows 7 computer, you can simply copy and paste your data back to your computer as all of the data will be decompressed. You can use the link below for instructions on rebuilding your Retrospect HD catalog file.
