Hi Terry,
I suspect the portable drive is FAT32 at point of sale and you didn’t format
it to NTFS, and this is causing file corruption because the computer you
connect it to is NTFS. Connecting a Maxster FAT32 portable hard drive to an
NTFS system will corrupt files on the portable drive. Those files and
folders you can’t get into are pretty much lost, but the folders that you
can gain access to can be backed up onto your main computer before doing the
format.
