  1. Extra Drive Appeared in my System Without Permission.


    I am getting an extra hard drive storage folder, which was not there before, with the name "SYSTEM_DRV E"
    It's 256 MB. its shows 205 MB free of 256 MB it was not there before.
    when I am trying to access it. it says "you don't currently have permission to access this folder"
    it also says " click continue to permanently get access to this folder".
    when clicking to continue it says " you have been denied permission to access this folder."
    please provide some solution to get rid of this extra hard drive storage.

    :)

    I realize that you noticed an extra partition in file explorer in Windows 10, let me assist you.

    To narrow down the troubleshooting, let us know the below information.
