How To Make Zune An External Harddrive. Guid.

I highly recommend backing up these registry values before modifying anything. If you donât know how to do that, I donât recommend that you even attempt this right now =)

1. Make sure your Zune is not plugged in and your Zune software isnât running
2. open up regedit by going to the start menu and selecting ârunâ. Type regedt32 and hit âOKâ
3. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemControlSet001EnumUSB
4. Search for âPortableDeviceNameSpaceâ. This should be contained in the Vid_####&Pid_############_-_########_-_########_-_########Device Parameters within the above â¦USB The ##âs listed here will be numbers and letters specific to your Zune
5. Change the following values:
* EnableLegacySupport to 1
* PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell to 0
* ShowInShell to 1
6. Plug in your Zune, and make sure the Zune Software starts up.
7. Hopefully at this point you can open up âMy Computerâ and browse your device, though it does NOT show up as a drive letter.

Right now I can access it both as a harddrive and sync through the Zune Software.
