what site did you try to use? Just curious

So drive only shows in File explorer?

1. Run command prompt as administrator;
2. Then type the commands in turn:

• diskpart
• list volume (here shows you the list which volume has letter)
• select volume X (X is a volume number when you want to remove)
• remove letter=Z (Z is a selected volume letters, run the command to remove the ghost hard drive letter instead of partition.)

3. If that works, restart to check if it is solved.
