[QUOTE="Topper, post: 1068014, member: 186250"] Yes I have a couple of external drives I have to allocate the drive letter to, using disk management everytime I connect them to my lappie, disconnecting again makes them lose that allocation. It is a known after effect of a particular type of cyber attack, but you have to be a registry expert to know which particular entry has been changed in the registry to sort it permanently. This is one of the reasons I hate the small amounts of unallocated space on a drives being created when partitioning as anything could hide in there and never be found by a decent AV [/QUOTE]
