I forgot the password how can i unlock it :))))

Which drive (model) are you talking about?

But generally you can’t unlock an encrypted WD drive without the password for security reasons. If you try and fail a few times in succession the WD unlock software should give you the option to reset/format the drive, but if you do that you’ll of course lose everything stored on it.

But without the password there is no way to get access again to the content of the drive.

Omg :))) thankyou so much

That refers to the administrator password for a NAS drive (like the MBL, but it also applies to the other MyCloud products too). Hence my initial question about which drive (type and model) the OP was talking about.

My response was based on it being a lost encryption password for a USB plug-in drive (a MyPassport for example), but if it is a NAS drive then you are entirely correct. However given the forum it was posted in, I thought it more likely we were talking about a USB drive.
