Hi everybody.
I have a Samsung T5 SSD which is in the exFAT format, as I use it between an Apple iMac(Mojave) and a Dell Laptop Windows 10.
I have committed the ultimate sin!
I enabled password protection when I got it, put it away as I was having a busy time, went back to it last week and .........yea! I forgot the password!
I can afford to lose the data, as I have it backed up, but trying to get my Samsung operational again is proving tricky.
I looked online and kept coming up with the solution "just right click the driver and reformat it"
I felt a bit nervous doing this, but the suggestion was everywhere, so I trusted it.
In short it didn't work, and now on both Windows and Apple OS, it is showing in the list of drives as "T5_Setup", and this
seems to react to nothing I do.
Has anyone gotten into this mess? And more importantly, gotten back out!!!
Many thanks in advance for any and all suggestions,
kind wishes to all, Jim
