**Q: Is Autolock issue with Windows 10 solved or is still needed to apply a patch?**
A: Dear Customer, 

The issue with the disconnection is caused due to the power settings on the computer or due to the Microsoft feature called USB selective suspend settings which can be resolved with a few troubleshooting steps and a Windows disconnect patch available on our website. 

However, we want to assure you that the issue is intermittent, meaning that it occurs sporadically and may not happen consistently. 

Kind regards,
iStorage Ltd.

*by C***N on 3 January 2024*

iStorage n'a pas réussi a créé un produit compatible avec Windows. Après une dizaine d'échanges avec leur service support et un premier retour à l'usine (à ma charge), iStorage rejette toujours la faute sur Windows. A mon avis c'est à iStorage de s'adapter à Windows et non le contraire. Je vais tenter un remboursement...
