I forget the password so I tried to format it. During the format process in Windows, an error is encountered. I tried with Wd Data Life Guard Diagnostics but still happening error “DELETE PARTITION ERROR”
Pls help to resolve
@jobyisnow Have you checked the Knowledge Base?
if you forgot the password. Try to download WD utilities. It will format your drive again after you enter the password wrong 5 times.
already tried formatting. but error happening while formatting
After you enter the password 5 time error, did you have WD Utilities to format the drive again? It should work. If you use any other application to format the drive it would give you that error because it think the drive is still lock. Which it is the drive is still lock and only WD Utilities can unlock the drive and reformat and reset the password.
