WD Smartware refuses to remove the security feature

Hello,

Once you click on remove security, click on update security settings and the password will be removed.

It will ask you again to put a password again, then you just need to leave that empty and the security will be removed.

So the steps are

a. Type your password in the Password box.
b. Select the Remove security option.
c. Click Update Security Settings.

A the security will be removed.
