                    The above command assumes the drive is named "h".  You need the replace "h" with the drive letter of your external drive and copy the command EXACTLY since the spacing is important.
attrib -h -r -s /s /d h:\*.*
attrib <space> -h <space> -r <space> -s <space> /s <space> /d <space> h:\*.*
Good Luck
            attrib -h -r -s /s /d h:\*.*
attrib <space> -h <space> -r <space> -s <space> /s <space> /d <space> h:\*.*
Good Luck

After running the above command it shows" access denied- I:\$recycle.bin\s.....".this message.
And now my drive's name is "I".
