Files cannot be written there at all, even though it is unlocked and NTFS permissions allow for it.Įarlier troubleshooting involved having to decrypt the drive and reformat it to remove that condition as I recall, Diskpart could select and claim to remove Write Only, but it wouldn't actually do it (drive still wouldn't accept files).ĭigging around leads me nowhere closest I get is someone claiming a GPO that denies non-bitlocked media may be set to deny_write, but that's not only not set but also non-sense in this case. I then removed the drive from the machine.īefore I took it to the user in question though, I thought to try it again - attached the drive, successfully unlocked, and for no discernable reason it's write only again. I then bitlocked it, unlocked it, and wrote another file to it to be sure. I reformatted it again, made sure all the permissions would allow any office user to write files (and I did test this and made a few files on the drive as my admin user and my regular user to make sure). No files could be saved there, no files could be made there.Īfter some initial troubleshooting, I decided maybe I'd messed something up.
The individual it was issued to ran into an issue on first use: Couldn't write to it. Sometimes it is not detected because of some problem in USB port. This being new, policy is also that it be fully reformatted (which I did as NTFS) and then Bitlocked in Compatible mode (with password). You can connect your WD passport 1 TB hard drive to your PC with another Usb Port.
We had a new external HDD enter circulation, which per policy has to be bitlocked. Windows 10, AD-managed environment, WD My Passport external. Options I cant unlock my WD Drive When I open my WD Drive Unlock application, it gives me an error.
