I know that it is much better to try and remember the password, but I just can't get it right.ĭo you guys have any other suggestions? Like, what else can I do, considering that I do remember part of the password? ANYTHING would be HIGHLY appreciated.Įverything could go smoothly if I get a positive answer from WD Support staff, but I just doubt it. You will have to erase the drive before you can use it again. that is on your drive or write new data to it. If you forget your password, you will not be able to access the data.
#Wd my passport forgot password software
I am so desperate that I am willing to wait years without using my drive, until a solution is found. The WD Security software uses your password to electronically lock and. Has anyone been through that? Has anyone erased their password-protected WD My Passport using WD's tool and then recovered the data? Has anyone contacted WD regarding this? I don't like it at all and it scares me, because I can't think of loosing even a byte that data I have on the drive, everything is personal and valuable to me. So, my option seems to be to erase everything and then try to recover it. I don't have a lot of hope for a positive answer, though. I did write to the WD Support, but don't have an answer. The only option you have is to ERASE EVERYTHING. WD say that if you forget your pass, you are, long story short, screwed up.



Now I can't remember my password, I do remember about 80% of it, but I must have put some stupid digits at the head or at the tail of the string. I did put about 250 gb of personal stuff on the drive. Alright, so, I am an idiot who set a password to his WD My Passport Ultra 2TB about two months ago and did not write it down.
