    Unknown drive

    Hi Harold,

    The unknown drive could be a system recovery drive or some other drive which you don't have access to it. You may follow these steps to check what kind of drive it is:

    • Click on Search bar.
    • Type diskmgmt.msc.
    • Check description of the ESP (FHard drive shows large unknown portion that was an *.ebd file.  How to free up the unknown... :) drive. Also check whether the drive is recovery drive or System Drive.
    You may also refer to this link for Disk cleanup in Windows 10.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.

    New Setup -Unknown Hard Error

    Hi Parren, Usually, the System Warning: Unknown Hard Error is triggered by corrupted system’s files or registry entries . ..

    At the top of that error dialog there should be a process or dll listed in the dialog header - what is listed there?
