    File History Drive


    Hello,
    Can anyone tell me how to stop a maintenance message"file history drive has been disconnected too long-reconnect drive"from displaying.
    I only connect my WD Passport drive backup drive once a month and do not need to be be informed that it is disconnected.
    Thanx

    Hello Ray, :)

    If you like, you could turn off File History as a workaround. When you are ready to do a backup and connect the drive, you could then turn on File History and manually run it.
