When I connected the device to my network, Vista would see the device and try to locate drivers as if it had found a new printer. Problem 1: Vista keeps asking for drivers.
There were two problems and I believe I’ve cured both of them, though I don’t know how. I did not have a problem getting to or seeing the device in Vista. Your solution doesn’t relate to my problem. You and I are worlds apart on this issue. If you have not done so read through the WD My Cloud User Manualin particular “Using Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7” under “Getting to the Public Share” for the general procedure of accessing the WD My Cloud shared folders with Windows Explorer on Windows Vista. Both the Vista PC and the WD My Cloud should be in the same IP address subnet (for example both should have an IP address in the 192.168.1.x range). Either within the WD My Cloud administration UI or within one’s router/gateway. The other recommended suggestion is to configure the WD My Cloud for a static IP. If it is not showing up under Network then check the network settings on both the Vista PC, ensuring it has the same Network Name/Network Workgroup (typically “workgroup”) that the WD My Cloud uses under “Settings -> Network -> Network Workgroup”. It will show up in the “Network Neighborhood” or under “Network”. One should be able to access the WD My Cloud on their local network via Windows Explorer (NOT Internet Explorer).

Generally one does not need to install “drivers” to access the WD My Cloud.
There is one or two other threads covering this very specific Windows Explorer crashing issue related to that WD My Cloud Desktop app that affects a few users. There is a known issue for some who use the WD My Cloud Desktop app where once that app is opened, some users experience Windows Explorer crashing. The BSOD that other thread talks about appears to be related to using one of the WD apps, my guess is the WD My Cloud Desktop app on their Windows PC. The above post seems to have ended without resolution. It is not the first post of the device causing BSODs Is there a way to get this working properly with Windows Vista? I’ve posted about this in a different thread. The device works with my Windows 8.1 computer, but has problems with my Sony Blu-Ray player connected wirelessly to the network. I’ve now disconnected the device from my network as the constant BSODs damaged my computer. I was able to copy files to the device, but when I try to access them from the device, my Windows Vista desktop gets a BSOD (this happened after the call to support). In Device Manager, it shows up under Other Devices with a warning indicator because there are no drivers installed. When I connect the device directly to my Ubee Wireless Router/Switch, Windows Vista immediately sees it as new hardware and tries to find drivers for it.

They remoted in and accessed the device without using their software and claimed it was a Windows problem, not theirs. I cannot get it to work properly with my Windows Vista desktop and support refused to help. I bought a 3TB M圜loud device a few months ago.
