My problem is that I have an external hard drive for important documents, etc. Recently, I wanted to add something again. So laptop turned on external hard drive and can't see my files in memory?
Googled to find out how it works and nothing helped.
Vllt can you help me as I still get my things off without formatting my hard drive?
Thanks in advance to the people who Really want to help.
Under Computer Management, Disk Management, assign a drive letter to the hard disk!
Try that, has often helped me:
type cmd in the search bar of the start menu. CMD.exe is found, right-click here and select Start as administrator.
in this window type: chkdsk D: / f (for D then insert the actual drive letter of the external disk.) Press Enter
Windows examines the disk and fixes errors, then you should have access to your files.
Since I first have to format times before I can assign names unfortunately
Then you cut those? So in the course of business what hired.
Are yes tools for data recovery! If you formatting that is of course not good… Then maybe everything could be gone…
I would try other things first…
What does crystraldiskinfo say? If defective, then by no means write accesses (such as checkdisk or similar) try, but mirror the plate 1: 1 on a new disk (for example, with dd_rescue). Then you can play around with the copy with checkdisk and the like.
