1475247 2021-02-25 18:32:00 Running Win10 Pro latest version. My external HDD when connected to my TV shows a file Found.000. I had a problem with the HDD a little while ago but Win10 fixed it.

When attaching the Ext HDD to my desktop I cannot for the life of me find the file. I have gone to the view menu and it has the "show hidden files" ticked but it is a no show. Any help please?

They are files or part fragments of files / corrupt files that chkdsk found when Windows repairs its self or other files it repairs
I had a problem with the HDD a little while ago but Win10 fixed it. They will be in a format that you cant read normally anyway.

Think of it (since you say TV show) as a clip with various chunks missing all over the place.

Don't worry about it if it no longer shows.

But whats the point ?? they will be completely useless as they are only the remains of damaged corrupt files.

1475254 2021-02-27 01:52:00 I don't like folders or files hanging around if they serve no purpose. I can see that it is not causing interference but I would much prefer that it did not stay there forever. Bryan (147)
