Hi,

I am wondering why my Passport is showing a default Windows icon instead of the My Passport icon? Is there any way to restore the icon as it should be shown? I am currently using Windows 7 and have the latest drivers installed for My Passport Ultra.

Any suggestions would be welcome!

Thanks

There is a default icon file within the hard drive, but it is removed once formatted. From that point it will use a standard external hard drive icon.
