    Been struggling for a week or so with this. How come when I add things to my D drive then...


    I am able to download files to my D drive it seems but when I go to look to see how much space I have left it still shows 116g of 116g but there's files in the drive so shouldn't it be taking up space? I should be seeing the blue bar like I did with my C drive right? though the C is now red because there's no space lol. I also tried moving over my documents from my C drive to the D but it says access denied. Help with that would be appreciated as well. Thank you in advance!

    :)

  2. D drive

    Hi,

    Based on the details you have provided us, it appears that there might be some corrupted contents on the said partition. We can also consider that this is caused by a virus.

    For us to check if a certain virus is hiding your files, kindly follow the steps below:

    • Type Command prompt in the search bar.
    • Type-in the following command:

      attrib -h -r -s /s /d D:\*.*
    • Press Enter to execute the command.

    If you think that there is nothing important stored in it, then we suggest that you reformat your D drive so that you can use the free space for important files.

    You can follow the steps below to start with the process:

    • Click on the File Explorer.
    • Select This PC.
    • Right-click on your D drive, then click on Format.
    • Follow the on-screen process to finish formatting the partition.

    Let us know how it goes so that we can further assist you.

    D drive

    I'm using an Internal D drive and "Drive Removed" is not the actual error message but all I remember Is that it said something about SATA and it would make a thing run and show me a list of my drives and the one I'm Installing my games on or trying to
    is gone. I tried restarting the computer and it comes back every time.
