Since it changed the behavior after uninstalling, I am left wondering what it has left on my system and changed? I am very protective of what gets installed and changed on my laptop, which has left me very disappointed with Western Digital after this last purchase. It also changed the icon of my drive too. Plus, now I had the WD SmartWare always running on my computer and even placed an icon on my task bar. It will always be there as long as the drive is connected to my computer.ĭuring the calls to WD, they had me install the WD SmartWare, against a lot of protest, but it had an option to hide the Virtual CD temporary, but a reboot or remounting the drive caused the Unlocker to appear on my desktop again. The Unlocker VCD remains hidden unless you set a password, and hides itself again when you remove a password, but it cannot be removed from the drive.
I found a solution here that said I should install the wd software and disable the virtual disc thing, but that only seems to work on my computer at home.
