Please scan your external disk with any updated anti virus. This may fix your file and folder then you will be open your folder. Just right click on the external disk drive then click on scan. This will scan and deleted corrupt file or folder of your external drive and fix the problem. If you found any issue again reply. I was solved the problem in same way that i suggested you. :biggrin:
I think check disk utility is the best way to fix the error in your external device. Any directory error, crossed linked files, lost clusters, bad sectors can be repair by the chkdsk utility. But you most login as a administrator of your computer. First it will check all sector of files and after that fix sector wise.I t may be complete all 3 stages.
So hurry and fixed it. :ohyeah:
