I have a 1GB MVME boot drive, a 256gb SSD secondary drive and a 2TB WD Black HDD. A couple of weeks ago something happened that made all the drives unreadable. I reinstalled Windows 10 on the MVME drive and then i was able to read and use the MVME and the SSD. I downloaded Recuva and I can recover the file from the HDD but it does take a hours. I hooked up the HDD as an external drive. Windows explorer and the command line both show the drive is basically empty even though the files show up in Recuva.
Is there a way to make the HDD readable by Windows again?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Solution
I suspect that you may need a full scan in DMDE to recover your files. The free version can recover up to 4000 files from any one folder per session. The standard version costs US$20.

Can you show us the Partitions window in DMDE? There may be a simple DIY fix.
