Description

Hi there, I'm new to turing screens. I got everything setup for this and it's working great but I discovered when I plug in an external HDD it causes main.exe to crash. I don't know enough to know why this occurs. Is it something I can fix?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash in main.exe with an external HDD connected, recording the conditions and any error output. Trace the failure from that reproduction to the relevant project entry point; done means the external drive no longer causes main.exe to crash and the regression is covered by an appropriate check.
