    So my computer is new like 4 months. I have a local internal disc D: one which I have some files, games and so one. Sometimes when I'm doing some stuff my disc goes missing. I can't click on the apps that are situated on this disc D:. Here is the photo (not virus...(in this picture there is a local drive).

    So I don't know what to do the real solution that is currently working for me is to just shut down the computer entirely. After reboot the drive shows up again and after a day or two it disappears again.

    I also checked this subreddit for any clues and I found this post that didn't got solve. So if any one knows how to fix this without opening (physically) my computer I will be very grateful.

    Currently I have this disc in "my hands" here is a picture of my disc management.

    Thanks for helping

  2. My Local disc D is gone suddenly

    Idk what happened, my computer was literally shutting down every time I run a game,

    the screen turns black for no reason ( that never used to happen before updating windows 10 last week ),

    so I went to cmd prompt, typed msconfig > services > hide all ms services > disable all, then restarted my pc,

    it didnt fix the problem,

    so I disassembled my PC carefully and cleaned the dust on my CPU ( I thought it might be an overheating problem ),

    and I assembled it carefully back ( I lost a couple of screws but I made sure everything was tight ),

    anyway, after turning on my PC, my local disc D is gone, it literally disappeared, so I undid everything,

    I went to cmd prompt, msconfig etc.. and enabled what I disabled, then restart my PC, and it's still gone,

    I literally have everything on local disc D, such as steam games, music, pictures,

    they're all gone,

    I went to disc management and it wasn't there,

    Idk what happened, can anyone please help ?

    If I reset windows 10, will it come back ?

    I don't care about the data anymore whatever, I just don't wanna lose the D disc,

    thanks!

    Local Disc D is filling up

    My local disc d is filling up and none of the clean up tools seem to help. When I look inside this disc, it shows vast majority stored in the other folder which doesn't allow me to delete anything. What could be filling this disc up and how can I create
    space?
