Hi hoping some one can help. When I try to load google chrome I get a blue and yellow shield and a box saying:
user account control and do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?
Tried clicking everything and cannot delete it. So therefore cannot load chrome.

This is a situation where you need to say what operating system you are using. WD is built into win8.

WD settings are in the control panel. I would also look at firewall and anti-virus settings.

It needs to be made flat again. I suggest a pile of encyclopaedias with the disc between the bottom 2. The weight should be enough but it will take a few days to work properly. That's the least damaging method I can think of.
