My Passport Ultra drive is full. I would like to selectively delete files on the portable Passport Ultra drive that I really don’t need backed up anymore? I can’t find a way to do this with WD SmartWare Pro V 2.4.6? Any other way?
Just connect it to your machine, use your relevant file manager (Windows Explorer or whatever) and go delete them. You won’t do any damage to how Smartware works by doing so.
You should find a folder Smartware.stor (or something like that) in the root of the drive, then sub-folders for each machine you’ve backed up with Smartware, then sub-folders from there for each drive on the given machine. Your backed up files should be in those in the same file/folder arrangement as on the original machines/drives.
Thank you Darren. That does it.
