Question Partition disppeared , again even after fresh windows install.

[Encall]

I was downloading some thing and then suddenly my downloaded file disappear. That's when I found out all of my drive that isn't boot drive are disappear again.
Around 15 days ago, I encouter this problem after I change my motherboard from B450 to X570. I thought I fix it by fresh install window.

Testdisk should help to write partition data to the drive but I can't find any permament fix.

I recomend DMDE to fix your partitions. Its GUI makes the job a lot easier than Testdisk. The whole process should only take a minute or two.

Maybe the permanent fix is to replace the SATA driver.

Isn't that already replaced in fresh window install?

maybe thats it then

Desktop systems based on AMD 6-Series, 7-Series, 8-Series, 9-Series, Socket AM4, and Socket TR4 chipsets running Windows® 10 should use the Microsoft provided Standard SATA AHCI Controller driver that comes installed with Windows® by default. This configuration ensures compatibility and offers the best experience with most types of mass storage devices.

AMD actually suggest you use the win 10 SATA driver, not theirs - https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/pa-250

As the image show, all the disk drives show up in device manager but not in devices and drives.

Highlighted one mean its disappeared.
