My external hd WD my passport does not work on windows 10

Hi
my windows 10 is not accepting my external hd WD my passport , it connects , but Windows does not recognize it and saw where many users are having the same problem , I wonder if it is a problem with Windows or with the product you?

Hi there,

Try to check on device manager to see if the unit is present there, or disk management as well, you can also try on a different computer.

Hope this helps.
