Hello,
Does anybody know how I can verify that updates are downloaded to my pc using 'MyDrive Connect', set up with the default settings.
Thanks for any help
Ian
I suppose when mydrive says that it's downloading it refers to downloading updates to the computer and when it says installing it refers to installing updates onto the device memory.
Provided you have selected the below option under settings of mydrive
