Did you know your windows computer updtaes at least once a week? creepy? no. updates are required for software to work properly you dashboard 2.0 is outdates mine is at 3.2. If you want to remove it just go to control panel and go to uninstall programs. In a mac just drag into the bin.

I'm sorry. I don't know. I had a drive cloned *for* me. I suggest you contact Seagate. They're awesome.

Yes, I just uninstalled it and it took things back to the way it was before I installed it. Wasn't a very hard process to uninstall.

As with Most (99.9%) the software is loaded on the Hard Drive and not In the Firmware.It can be deleted of but the easiest way is to copy it else where and re-format the HDD.That way if you want to sell it later you have the original Software to put back.

will I loose all my data that is already on the 4GB, or is this an additional drive? I tried to use the Seagate 1TB external Computer drive, but it wouldn't work.

Hey Harold, This is EXACTLY why I bought this drive. It is now sitting between my XB1 and my PS$ and all my games are on the seagate...I am thrilled with this purchase!! Works perfectly!!

Sorry, I can't find that info in my booklet. Try going to the Seagate website.

Well once it is complete you can navigate to the seagate drive through finder and try to open the files to verify they are there. How it is done? I still have not gotten it to work, but seagate sent me some info because I have had trouble. Check seagate's website.

There's always bloatware, you just have to remove it. Being a Linux user I just blow away everything and not worry about it. If you use Windows "add/remove" in control panel is your friend.

I am not an expert on this. Please call Seagate tech support 1.800.SEAGATE (1.800.732.4283)

It is probably a software pre-installed on the drive that is telling you to do that. If you don't want to use it, format the drive before you start using.

Why would you want to do that ? How about deleting old files on the drive instead ?

I really don't know but I think you would have to . Go to control panel and add and remove programs go in there and remove.

Return the POS before a) you're disappointed because it is complete crap and b) you find the software, install it, and are unable to remove it. Trust me... get your 100 bucks back NOW!

I have the Seagate 2tb and I also run Windows 7 and it just asked me to upload an out of date app but it works. That's all I can tell you.

I just wanted to add my .02 cents. R. Knowlton's 'delete Windows Live' advice worked for me also. I spent the better part of 1.5 days on this 'CIFS Sign In & Password' nonsense fruitlessly trying all different ID's/Passwords, messing with folder permissions, etc... It wasn't until I delete Window Live that I got my LG BX580 to find my shared folders on my Windows 7 Home PC. I had to delete everything with Windows Live attached to it (I thing it was Windows Live Essentials and Windows Live Sync that I deleted). Once deleted and my PC rebooted, my LG BX580 found my shared directories and played my files...including my HD .mkv files. No password required...just showed my folders and the files play when selected. I consider this a major 'bug' with either LG or Windows Live. They DO NOT work together.

Not on my computer. The HFS4WIN.exe file won't install on Windows 8. I spoken with 3 different people in Seagate support and get nowhere. I think they are aware of the problem but don't seem to know how to fix it.
