I bought an unbranded Bluetooth 5.0 USB dongle for my Windows 11 PC. The drive that came with the device (on a CD), does not install correctly, giving an error message that adequate permissions are not available for installing files in the System32 sub-folder. I tried changing the permissions for this System directory, but no success.
I was playing Fallout New Vegas and suddenly my game froze up so I had to force shut down but after I clicked on the icon of the game, it said I hadn't installed the game so I tried to enter in my d drive (hdd) and it gave me a message that said "can't open due to fatal error" so I restarted my laptop and boom all my drives except c (SSD) were gone.
I chose to uninstall the driver and the computer restarted automatically with my external hard drive already plugging, and the problem was solved. you just saved the day
Thankyou so much. I was so upset when my computer wasn't detecting my hard drive anymore. I had it for over 2 years with no issues then all of a sudden it wasn't working properly. Def getting a like.
I tried the cmd line that you mentioned in the video @ 7min 25 sec, but when the corresponding window opens, I receive an error msg stating "Windows Online Troubleshooting Service is disabled Windows Online Troubleshooting Service is not enabled for this version of Windows".....Which is really strange because I haven't disabled any of the error reporting or troubleshooter either, I'm good on malware, just did a scan, and it came back clean, sfc /scannow doesn't report any corrupted files either. My windows version is Windows 11 22h2 Build 22621.1635.
I'd like to know more about 'dynamic disks' and why sometimes I get this warning when using DIsk Management? I usually back out as I don't want to mess up my computer.
Love how Windows 11 told me the drive had no errors the day before it failed (not even shown in the BIOS). I've a couple hard drives that are 15 years old, 2 that over 10, but my backup drive failed after 5 years. Go figure.
I recently had this issue after a windows update on my brand new M.2 which I was using as a boot drive. I'm not sure if M.2 came out of the slot or the windows update broke my bios but we took the drive out looked it over and then reinserted it and it started working again it was bolted in with the M.2 shield originally so it shouldn't have come out of the slot.
Thank you so much, I installed a new hard drive and I couldn't see it in disk management. The fix that worked for me was Hardware and Devices Troubleshoot (7:11)
Typical steps which I find them important to do but when you have the problem you freak out and forget the steps. A perfect guidelines for even exports! ❤
I installed a new power supply. Hard drive was working perfectly fine. I plugged everything in and double checked everything there is a 0% chance of anything being loose or not plugged in properly. My problem isn’t that it won’t show up in files, I won’t show up in device manager, it won’t show up in bios, it’s completely gone. And I’m tearing my hair out trying to figure out why the hell this isn’t working
A potential hardware issue could be that the interface controller in the drive has failed and it’s a failure that will usually happens suddenly without warning and in that scenario the only way to get your data back is to replace the failed interface controller or to get a data recovery business to recover your data which should be fully recoverable in that scenario. However you will need to know the decryption password to access it if the drive is encrypted.
Please bro make a video on this topic because I recently faced this issue with my HDD partition... I tried everything to solve it but nothing is happening and I have my study material in it and now I am unable to access it...
Have you tried a program called Mini Tool Partition Wizard ? If you do a full scan with that using the Partition Recovery option, and it finds the lost-deleted partitions. assign a drive letter to the drive Quickly! then pull the data off it right away. Sounds like your drives either on its way to hell or been eaten by a virus. Good luck!
One for you to tackle, Brian?. One of the Flash Drives I use for back-up (good quality) is now 'not recognised'. I have tried all the DISM and CHKDSK variations and actually go it to display briefly, so I know all the files are still there. Tried assigning a fresh Drive letter too, to no avail. (Thinks: "How can I format it, if it's not recognised?!") One for a future video, perhaps? Meantime, I have other backups and will format the drive and then re-use it, after checking for any viruses.
Please, thank you for your Excellent tutorials. * My External harddrive turns to RAW and it cannot show at the drive panel . I mean when you format it did not complete successfully. But if I go to Disk Management it shows there . But why not showing at main drive areas. Is there any software to use to fix this
Change of subject I have two different harddrive s on my pc can you make the computer asking you for what harddrive you want to load from my pc used to ask first but lately just loading from one harddrive I know you can go into bio's and boot from the other drive but a lot easier when you just have to pick from two been following you for years thanks in advance

Hi! Mine is split into 3 parts in disk management. the two (including the biggest one which i believe is where my files are) will not allow me to do anything - all grayed out, except delete volume? then the one that will now show up is the small one but it's only 112 mbs when my drive is 2 tb. suggestions?
i did everything in the video but sadly the problem is not working, i have already a D drive with 250 GB but i went and bought the exact same model but with 1 Terabyte since its an old computer. the new one with one terabyte shows up in BIOS but not in file explorer, and when i try to troubleshoot it just says it can't detect a problem. if i go into device manager i can see the new disk but i can't get it to show up in my file explorer and if i go to disk management it dosent show up as a driver

I think the most recent windows 10 update bricked my secondary drive. It was able to detected it for a few minutes on start but then it no longer shows up.
I have an issue with a 1Tb SATA SSD. A Western Digital Blue, I was doing a Low Level Reformat & about 2 minutes later I heard the USB noise on the PC I was doing this with & the Drive can no longer be Detected. If I plug it in I get no USB sound whatsoever. I tried using CMD & Disk Manager to detect it but to no avail. It was used but I have only had 2 used SSDs die on me out of many Dozens I have purchased & both were older Intel SSDs that failed on me in the past. This Western Digital blue Drive didnt even handle a reformat & now cant even be seen by a PC, not sure if anything can fix this & it isnt worth sending to a Data Recovery place, there was nothing on the Drive.

If the hard drive is not showing in the BIOS, then I can think of only 3 things it could be: 1. The hard drive is no longer functioning (either faulty or the power cable to the hard drive is not plugged in properly), 2. The connection / cable from the hard drive to the motherboard is faulty or not plugged in properly (check both ends of cable), 3. the settings in the BIOS is turned off for that specific SATA port (SATA0, SATA1, SATA2, etc...).
I'm sorry but although your tutorials are good, they are way out of date, for example you say, in File Explorer, view, options.....there is NO OPTIONS after i hit view.

If windows doesn’t see the C drive, how does it boot off of it?

Actually Windows don't show the icon, but code obviously has access to the drive, not the graphical interface.

You can change it in cmd diskpart, raw to ntfs. Also you can doit from some softwares.
Would it be useful to check that it is recognised in the BIOS?
Yes
