Windows 10: 2 windows sees the disk with different letters

There are two Windows on my PC, 10 and 11. I connect each of them separately. I want 11 to connect an ssd with it or with 10. and a 1 tb hard drive without a system purely for games. But at 10 it is displayed as D and at 11 as E. and does windows assign the drive letter to itself to work with the disk, or is it the disk?

File History no longer sees internal hard drive

Hi Derek,

Thank you for being part of Microsoft Community.

If you are unable to see that drive, I would suggest you to check if it listed in Disk Management utility. Refer to these steps:



a) Press
Windows key +X, select Disk management.

b) In the new Window, check if the E drive is listed.

c) If it is not listed, please check if you are able to see any other partition with a different letter assigned to it or if there is any other partition
with unallocated space.



Please get back to us with this information so that we can assist you further.

 

why do 2 Local Disks get isolated?

This HP has a new SSD. I just now found this and wonder if it is stupids and/or dangerous to try <

"How to delete EFI partition with Diskpart

Step 1. Hit "Windows Key + R to open the run dialogue box, enter "diskpart" and click "OK" to open a black command prompt window.
Step 2. Type "list disk" to display all the disks of your computer. Type "select disk n" to identify which disk you need to work with. Here n stands for the disk letter.
Step 3. Type "list partition" to display all the volumes on the hard drive. Type "select partition n" to identify which partition you want to remove. Here n stands for the volume letter.
Step 4. Type "delete partition override" to remove the EFI partition. Finally, type "exit" to close the windows when you receive the message says, DiskPart successfully deleted the selected partition"

just for a better understanding, but not wanting to complete it, I took these steps >

so C: should be using 70GB I assume (461- 391)

Am sure my lack of expert knowledge is showing!

 

Change the letter assigned to an external disk?

You can change that but for that you will have to format the disk so make sure to backup any data you have on that drive.

Connect the disk to your PC and follow these instructions.

Start Disk management by right click on windows start button or using "win+x" on keyboard and selecting "Disk Management"

1. In disk management you will see external disk under "DISK 0" and "CD ROM" at the bottom left corner.
2. Here, you will right click on the partition (blue line partiton)
3. Select "Change Drive letter and paths".
4. Select "Change"
5. Assign any Letter from the drop down list
6. Click ok.

ITS DONE!!!!

Disconnect and reconnect to check.

Hope this helps.

Regards
