Many USB devices do need drivers, but if you computer is connected to the internet, when you connect hard drive up to your computer, it will automatically search for the correct driver and download it and install tour device, with the message (at the bottom right of your screen) 'Your new hardware is installed and ready to use'. Sometimes, devices use drivers already included with your operating system, eg WD external HDs. Some are plug'n'play - you do not need drivers. According to (3) reviews of this I have seen on Amazon, it is as easy as it seems. 22.April.2014

Hello!

Please check if the ac adapter is still working. If you have a digital multitester, check if there is an output voltage from the ac adapter when it is plug in the ac outlet. Set the range of your multitester to DC. If the ac adapter is working you should see the LED indicator lamp lit in your Clickfree when it is plug in the ac outlet.

Please check if the usb cable is not faulty. Try to use other usb cable.

Please check the usb port on your new computer, make sure it is enable, meaning usb drivers have been installed already. Try to connect on other port.

This is initial troubleshooting.

don't use clickfree, ever. a 2009 xp/vasta mess ! use this to backup. and also backup to 2 things not one. backup to a USB stick memory Udisk 2nd. our us MS cloud to Backup. or burn a BLuray Disk. BD-R https://www.2brightsparks.com/download-syncbackfree.html

no PCs stated nor OS. there is no answer possible (answered late) these old HDD ext do not run on newer OS than VISTA. even vista the manual tells you , backups must be tweaked. making click free a lie, In my book. and a dream failed. what I do is forget click free dream? (learn to do your own BU) format the USB drive to Fat32 or NTFS (now it is generic drive) then use free, and learn it works to any HDD or SSD , internal; or external, any. https://www.2brightsparks.com/download-syncbackfree.html

no click free model stated at all, there are lots, 2009 to now. NO PC STATED NO OS stated at all , not a clue. XP to W10, or MAC or? windows answer. run smart tests on it first. this thing is old right? get crystalinfodisk.exe free. https://crystalmark.info/en/software/crystaldiskinfo/ run that, and point it to the USB drive. yellow or red warning is a bad drive.!!! no if's and's nor BUT's no OS stated, most those old clickfree only work on VISTA/ or Xp most are 10 years old now, and the click free IDEA was silly. it will not work on W10, that is silly for them to think this would work. but they will tell you sorry, we never dreamed of W10 in year 2009.

10 years old now. this HDD. and will be hard to use on all versions of windows, xp up to W10 ( all use different storage folders) and is VISTA only device, what PC? what OS?? W10? using what PC last year? using what this year,? 750GB C6 2.5" Portable HD USB 3.0? when you backup, and using w10, you must click the USB icon on the task bar , before shutting off PC, or you will lose data. taskbar right lick usb tiny ION, pick eject Udisk. if you do that you will never lose data on the external HDD you have. (ive done this 10,000 times now , no loss) this act purges the data buffers, to the EXT hDd.(cache) reading your manual now.,page 11 states

• Microsoft Windows® XP (any editions) • Mac OSX 10.5 Leopard running on an Intel processor if I had this old device Id low level; format it and use it like generic and normal. HDD external. and drag files to it or use syncbackfree v8 to keep what I wanted data synced. They had dream then that was in fact silly. silly to think MS would keep directory structures the same A FAILED IDEA.

Unplug external drive. Restart PC until normal. It will come back. Once back, plug in external drive. Then it is read. You cannot start(boot) PC with a live backup drive connected unless you change the boot order in your PC bios (sometimes called post). If this is not easy for you. Best to plug in after boot up.
