Thank you so much indeed for your reply.
I've found out recently that :
While I connect my passport hard disk, I see these two auto play windows open. Sometimes, I found the options of auto play are inactive, after a little while the error association shows me. Other times, when I click on one option of the auto play, I see that the option executes

By the way, the version of my Smartware is 1.6.2

Thank you so much
I promise that I'll try this,
By the way, could you tell me
unlock program opens auto play inside another removable drive(Unloack security) whenever I connect my passport hard disk:: Why does there another removable device show while connecting my passport?
From where does it take the space of this device?

Hi,
This is normal, when you plug in the Western Digital Passport drive, you will see an additional drive appear in Windows Explorer (My Computer). The unlock.exe program will be on this drive. The WD has two drives (a small one with unlock.exe) and the main drive. Even when the main one is locked, the small one will be accessible so that you can run the unlock.exe program and open up the main drive. For more details you can visit "WD Smartware FAQ" page:
https://community.wd.com/t/wd-smartware-faq/26969#M1818
Please revert for clarification.
