    Windows 10 hard drive is listed as drive E instead of C

    DELL PC Windows 10 Outlook 2007 RAID

    One user has no items listed in the Sent folder. This incident happened after the local electric supply blacked us out three times a couple of days ago. The user was in Outlook 2007 and was about to send an email. The email is in the Outbox. The owner has tried to run the Inbox Repair Tool but it can't find the C Drive. The PC has two hard drives set up as a RAID Mirror. Disk Management reports the RAID as Drive E. I tried to change the drive to C: but received an improper parameter.

  3. External Hard Drive is not getting recognized properly.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reply.

    Connect your external hard drive to a different USB and check if that helps. Also connect the hard dive to a different pc and check are you able to access the files.

    Method 1: To check if the hard drive is visible in Disk management.

    1. Press Windows Key + R and type devmgmt.msc

    2. Check if your hard drive is listed.

    Method 2: I suggest you to try changing the drive letter of the drive and check if it helps.


    Follow the steps to change the drive letter:

    a. Press Windows + X keys and click on
    Disk Management
    .

    b. Right click on the external drive and click on Change Drive letter and paths.

    c. Click on Change the button.

    d. Under Assign the following Drive letter, select the desired drive letter.

    e. Click Ok to save changes.

    Hope it helps. If you need further assistance with Windows, let us know and will be glad to help.

    Thanks
