    Trying to download the user manual for my WD Elements 1TB external hard drive to be able to retrieve some files (Chrome bookmarks) I lost while trying to move around between folders. Tried to use the pin # off the original box, but this site keeps telling me that it is not valid. The files are on the WD drive backup, but I do not know how to retrieve them and copy them back onto my desktop. Please advise me how to download the user's guide/ manual so I can learn how to accomplish this.
    Thanks,
    Robert Hart
