[SOLVED] Samsung SSD not showing in 'This PC' on my laptop ?

[Xectis]

I recently created a fresh Windows 10 installation on my laptop, with all drivers, and recent Microsoft updates installed. I also added a Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB SSD purely for backup purposes, which has been NTFS formatted, and with a drive letter assigned.

The issue is that this internal SSD cannot be seen under 'This PC' , even though Windows sees it under the 'Disk Management' . It's a mystery to me.

Any help much appreciated.

Update: It has been sorted.

MBR or GPT ?

what did you do?

I had to delete the partition via a third party program, and then use Window's Disk Management to create a new partition and assign a letter to it.
