Hello,
for some time now I have been unable to open my USB drive (access denied!) with Windows, while Ubuntu opens it normally (both OS coexist on my PC).
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Configuration: Windows XP / Firefox 2.0.0.20

    Hello,

    Try this: Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management, your drive should be visible, assign it a different letter (Z for example), and it will appear in the workstation...

    or you can always try to format it with this software, it's excellent:

      I have dealt with this problem several times, and each time a formatting with Windows is enough.
