Memory Stick Password

casey junior · 2021-01-12 20:46:51

i transferred a lot of stuff off my laptop onto a SanDisk stick, now I can't retrieve it as I can't remember the password, even with the hint. Is it a lost cause?

You are pretty much hosed unless you remember the password. Make sure your caps and num lock are off before attempting to re-enter the pw.

There should be a poster along here soon who will tell you to use a linux disk to recover the password :cool:
