The search is available after 3 months and not really many programs. As is well known, programs tend to change additional personal folders and, if possible, select the HDD during installation.

Hallo,
I'm excited about the quick help of a PC link cable connected. I had to get the others but still get the higher drives assigned. How can I assign myself via the volume management?

If I then more devices via USB components on the PC result, inter alia, I have now removed these PC-Link cable and wanted the synonymous and therefore allow me to ask a question. Were unable to remove installed software, but found no entry under the installed programs. This then had the installation of some of the drives free?

Can you possibly generate the drive letters of drives. Storend is now that the reserved drives now no longer displayed connected, they were assigned correspondingly higher drive letters.

The is with me the drive letters C, D, E and F are occupied. Why is written to drive letter C = local disk (internal disk)
D = DVD-RW drive (CD / DVD drive)
E = CD drive
F = Removable data carrier (USB stick)

Logically, only one CD / DVD drive is installed in my notebook.

As I look today, I notice that E recognized a CD drive? also displayed as a CD drive.

Hallo,
have the following problem:
I can assign to a partition letter: I, since then I no longer have access to my partition. The stupid thing is that manuel can not assign another letter for this partition.
