  3. Cannot access D drive since upgrading to Windows 10.

    Hello Judy,



    Thank you for replying quickly with the status of the issue.



    Please reply to few more questions:


    • Is the D: drive located on the same hard disk or on different hard disk?

    • Did you have any important data saved on the
      D:
      drive?


    If the D: is saved on another hard disk and you are unable to access it, I suggest you to format the drive completely and check if the issue is resolved.



    To format the hard disk, follow the steps below:




    • Press Windows logo + X keys on the keyboard and select
      Disk management option.

    • Right click on the D: drive and select
      Format option.

    • Wait for the formatting to complete and check if the changes are effective.


    Write to us with the status of the issue for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.

    My Disk Drive D Is Missing

    Woke up to a missing D Drive

    Hi GrantFed,

    I’m Rey, your Independent Advisor.

    I understand your D drive is missing. Let me help you with this.

    There are several reasons why the harddrive will not be detected, and these are the steps of troubleshooting I recommend:

    Solution 1:

    Step 1. Right-click on Start, click "Device Manager".

    Step 2. Expand Disk driver and locate the hard drive which cannot be detected by Windows.

    Step 3. Right-click on the disk and select "Update Driver Software" from context menu.

    Update Driver

    Step 4. If there are any updates, follow further instructions to update the disk driver.

    Solution 2. Uninstall and reconnect the second hard drive

    In addition to updating the disk driver, you can try to uninstall and reconnect the external hard drive to get Windows 10 detect it.

    Step 1. Enter the Device Manager interface as solution 1.

    Step 2. Double click Disk Driver to expand it.

    Step 3. Right-click on the second hard drive and select “Uninstall”.

    Uninstall Disk Driver

    Step 4. Reboot your computer after uninstalling this disk is finished and plug in the hard drive again.

    I hope this will help you solve your concern if not, let me know and let's work on it together.

    I believe that these steps will help you solve this issue you have. If not, kindly contact me and let me know.
