-Kindle Not Recognized As Drive

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

-Kindle Not Recognized As Drive

Post by *patetcmi »

I would like to manage my Kindle using Total Commander but it is not recognized as a drive the way external hard drives and flash drives are. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks.

Please look in "Computer" or "My Computer" (Alt+F11 or Alt+F12, then cursor down).

Not confirmed: my Kindle PW is successfully mapped to a drive letter (the way external hard drives and flash drives are) on Win7U x64.

It depends on the operating system version: The Kindle operating system on the e-ink Kindles, and Android 2.x usually appear as a drive letter to the connected system. Android 3 and beyond (used by newer versions of Kindle Fire) appear as a MTP device (media transfer protocol).
