Hi all,
I started up my PC this morning and wanted to access some files I had previously downloaded on my secondary SSD, D drive. However, I ran into an issue of "this site cant be reached" because the file might have been moved whenever I tried opening a pdf in Google. I thought it was just a Google problem, but then none of the other browsers worked either, so I downloaded adobe acrobat reader, and finally decided the problem was with corrupted files. Just to make sure, I tried pdf files on my OS drive and it worked fine. I come back later in the day (did not shut down PC) and my D drive completely disappeared. I can see quick access pdfs from that drive, but in file explorer I did not see D drive anywhere. I went through complete shutdown (without fast startup) and while booting it said windows did not start up properly, so I chose restart PC, and now D drive is back. It seems that everything is fine now, but I'm concerned that this might be a bigger problem that just hasn't shown up until now. Any help would be appreciated.
