    Secondary drive marked as System + Black screen

    Hello thanks for the response,

    I made backup(image) of C drive with Macrium. Strange thing, when I tried to make a backup also windows icon was on the D drive. I'm not sure if making only C(system) backup was good option. Or should I check C and D

    But the rest of the screenshot are here because it double posted and I tried delete it but there's no option for me even with WYSIWYG advanced post edit option.

    The worst scenario that I'm worried is that I'll make those steps and my original system image wont restore. I have now a lot of stuff to do on my PC and I don't want to make myself problems.

  3. Windows 10 1909 Causes Secondary Hard Drive to not be Recognized

    Installing the Windows 10 1909 Update causes my secondary hard drive to not be recognized.

    Steps to confirm issue:

    • Secondary drive not visible in Windows Explorer
    • Secondary drive not visible in device manager
    • Secondary drive not visible in disk manager

    Steps to replicate issue:

    • Installing 1909 update

    Steps to resolve issue:

    • Uninstall 1909 update

    Since updates can only be delayed for so long, an actual fix would be appreciated.

    Sorry for the response time, a lot of stuff.

    I'm confused a little bit. Will system partition have letter D?

    Also as Macboatmaster says "I think it may be legacy - MBR" so then should I use this metod?

    I tried it now, unfortunately doesn't work


    Reinstall is not my target option.

    Screens attached below(previous ss didn't load)
