    Drive Unreadable?


    A preface: I don't know a lot about computers.I brought my laptop in to get repaired and was informed today that the drive wasn't readable and that, even after trying a new one, the laptop wouldn't function. He told me it was likely a motherboard issue and that I'd need to replace both. Is there something I can do, even if to get even some of my files back? I don't want to potentially miss something that will allow me to fix this issue or at least get some of my stuff back is all.The issue that brought me in the first place was a potentially water damaged touchpad and a driver issue, in which

    Hard Disk is unreadable after updates

    Hi Hermawan,

    There are a number of reasons why hard disk drives fail. It may fail due to software or firmware damages which makes it unable to interact with the computer, or it may simply be corrupted due to problematic information on the
    disk. For us to isolate you concern, we would like to ask the following questions:

    • How long have you been using the device?
    • Have you made changes on the device prior to the incident?
    • Was it damaged physically prior to the incident?
    • What have you done so far to resolve the issue?

    In the meantime, we suggest you check the steps provided by
    Time Lady on this
    thread     and see if it helps.

    We look forward to your response.

    Drive Unreadable?

    Windows 10 Mail app: many of my unread emails are not appearing when "Unread" option is chosen

    Have been using Windows 10 Mail app on my PC for some time. Suddenly this afternoon I noticed that only 4 of my 20 unread emails appear when I choose the "Unread" option. Why are the other 16 not listed anymore?

    I checked the 16 missing emails and they are all still marked as "unread" so why are they not appearing when I choose the "Unread" filter?

    Have tried troubleshooting and fixes supplied by Microsoft but the problem remains.

    Is this something that others are experiencing? Any suggestions?
