Hello,

I have 2 external drives.
They were named "F" and "G".
Somehow, the drive letters have changed.
I tried going to the drive, right click to bring up list and use it to
"RENAME" the drives. (EXAMPLE (F:) (F:) or (G:)... (G:)
All that occured was it added the change to what was already there.

I have tired going through the instructions for changing a drive letter
(Procedure that led to Disk managemanet).
It was scarey to read that it could cause a partition change and loss of data.

I tried it, but it did not work.
The same drive letters (2 for each drive now) appear.

Does anyone have any tips on what I could try / use ??

Thanks for your review.
