Windows 7 sometimes doesn't let me access other drives
This is sort of an extension of a previous problem, which I never found a solution for. Thread: Accessing drives in Windows Explorer takes a long time
Basically, I sometimes can't access other drives/partitions on my computer. If I look at my drives in Windows Explorer, I can see them all listed. If I double-click on the drive, the progress bar at the top of the window moves along very slowly, but the drive never actually opens.
Sometimes I can access a folder on the problem drive by running e:\stuff, while other times it will just open an empty Windows Explorer window. Sometimes I can access a folder, but if I try to access the same folder a few minutes later, I run into the same problem again.
Indexing is turned off for all but a few folders (library folders).
Any ideas?
