مشڪلاتون

If you encounter issues with your diskAshur2, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Device Not Appearing in File ڳولا ڪندڙ/ڳوليندڙ:

  Ensure the device is properly unlocked (solid green light). If it is unlocked but not appearing, try connecting to a different USB port or a different computer. Verify that your operating system's Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (macOS) recognizes the drive, even if it's unformatted or unallocated.

• Device Locks After Incorrect PIN Attempts:

  The diskAshur2 has built-in protection against brute-force attacks. After a certain number of consecutive incorrect PIN entries, the device will enter a deadlock frozen state, rendering it temporarily unusable to protect data. Refer to the full user manual for recovery procedures, which may involve resetting the device (note: resetting typically erases all data).

• Connectivity Issues (e.g., Disconnects Frequently):

  Ensure the USB cable is securely connected. The integrated USB cable is short; using USB extension cables or hubs not rated for USB 3.0 data transfer can cause instability. Connect directly to a high-speed USB 3.0 port if possible.
• macOS سان مطابقت:

  While compatible with macOS, some users have reported issues with unlocking or consistent recognition. Ensure your macOS is up to date. If issues persist, try connecting to a Windows PC to verify basic functionality, then re-attempt on macOS. Formatting the drive specifically for macOS (e.g., APFS or HFS+) might resolve some issues.
