    Why Doesn't Windows 11 and 10 Recognize My External HDD?


    I have this HDD that I used to be able to use on Windows but it stopped working and it is only recognized now on Ubuntu. I had a similar problem with a USB Flash Drive but Disk Manager was able to show the Flash Drive so all I needed to do was assign a letter to the partition. That being said I can't even see the HDD showing up on Disk Manager. What might be the problem?I tried to look around on Ubuntu, because I can see the properties of the HDD, and the only difference between the HDD and the USB Flash Drive is the Partition Type. The Flash Drive is "Basic Data" and the HDD is "NFTS/exFat/HP
