Every time I reboot, I get a prompt asking for permission to install "Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver", every time I do, and all is well until the next reboot. If I choose "Ask me later" my card reader doesn't work, so it appears likely that I do want this driver installed. Any clues why I'm prompted on each bootup for the same driver? -- You can get more with a kind word and a 2x4 than just a kind word. >> Stay informed about: Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver - On every bootup

I get this same [crock] dialog box on my Vista Home Premium 32bit machine, too. And not just at boot time - it also comes up sometimes after restoring from a hibernate. WHY can't Microsoft write code that JUST WORKS?? -- SQLGeek >> Stay informed about: Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver - On every bootup

Yep, I have the same issue. New Acer computer. Multicard reader under portable devices had the exclamation point next to it. Uninstalled/reinstalled driver and it came back up not as the card reader but as Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver and still with the exclamation point. It will read the cards (XD, SD, and USB) but it keeps asking for the driver -- which it shouldn't even need since the OS should recognize it anyway. Called MS, they said that since my system came with the OS preinstalled they didn't support it. Called Acer, they said they only gave hardware support -- great!! Maybe I'll dig out my XP Pro CD and install that instead! And now, after installing everything as admin, after I set up a regular user account, it won't log on. I tried to create a user account and the guest account, and when I try to log on, it goes to a blue screen and just sits there. I can ctrl-alt-del and log off and log on under the admin acct okay. I really didn't want Vista but that is all that I could get with a new PC. Have had other issues too -- Media player wouldn't work initially because of a sound card conflict. From reading other posts, this UPD FileSystem issue is pretty widespread. Was it caused by some sort of automatic update by MS? The only "advice" I get from Acer is to restore the system to factory defaults -- and lose two days worth of installing software??? -- I don't think so.

Hi, Having the same problem and cannot find a solution on any of the Microsoft Sites. Bill Gates knew when to get out! I am planning to move over to Lynux any day now but sadly there are a lot of programs that i need MS for. I notice that the WPD File Sytem volume driver reboots every time but only does so successfully every second time i boot up. There does not appear to be any problems one way or the other but one has to wonder what MS has done with our windows! If you get an answer to this problem i would love to hear it.

Indeed. It's an oddity, but it doesn't appear to be related to specific hardware or specific configurations as I've got several completely identical systems here and only have the problem on one. >Bill Gates knew when to get out!

I had the same problem (in another thread). Try disabling all the card reader drives, then enable them one-by-one. ONe of them will cause trouble. Just disable it. My problem was with the Compact Flash drive. -- AndrewMBaines >> Stay informed about: Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver - On every bootup

I fed from the above comment and came with a solution to my issue. I'm currently running Vista Home Premium 32 bit with a HP a6130n desktop computer. The issue is the same although i noticed one of the card readers were missing under computer folder. Instructions are as follows: 1. Right click computer under the start tab and select manage 2. Click on the Device manager tab. You will see the ! in "WPD FileSystem Volume driver software." 3. Click on Disk drives and disable each one until the WPD FileSystem disappears. 4. Reinable all the drives then right click the problem drive and select properties. 5. Click on the volumes tab then select "populate" then note down what Disk number the populate assigned it. 6. Go back to the Computer Management window. On the left side is a folder called Disk Management(under the Storage folder). Select Disk Management. 7. At the bottom is a list of disks. Right click the disk number you populated for the problem drive and select "Change drive letter and paths.." 8. Assign the drive letter and go back to the Device Manager. 9. problem gone. -- yourgoodimbetter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ yourgoodimbetter's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/yourgoodimbetter.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-hardware-devices/805001.htm http://forums.techarena.in >> Stay informed about: Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver - On every bootup

Very nice. I had no drive letters assigned as I only use the SD reader. I've now assigned letters and all works well. Thanks -- AndrewMBaines >> Stay informed about: Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver - On every bootup
