Dear forum members,
When I want to make a movie master of video files on my external HDD, and thereby using the file directory list, the drive isn't recognized. Normally I'm using windows explorer and searching through the entire disc is possible. I don't have any clue, it's not visible in the list.
Details external HDD:

Through fear of the wrath of others may I tell you what I did when this happened to me?
Create the PVDB but leave it blank (erase all those which have failed to work), also delete the shortcut on desktop (as it take you to the wrong destination.
Use your External hard drive to open your Movies.BAK or whatever you have stored it as.
It should then open in your PVDB
Back up to Computer C Drive>Programs>Program Files(x86)>PVDB folder
Next time you open it from programs it should be there. Back up to external drive later as well.
Hope this works :)
