Hi
The internal HDD of the computer I'm booting WinToUSB drive on does not appear in Windows Explorer. How can I make it appear?
I'm running Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit. I just made a fresh installation using WinToUSB.
I remember it working before. But I was using Windows 8, 32-bit back then. It was the same computer.
What can I do to make the computer's internal HDD appear in Windows Explorer?

Hi there,
I understand that you're experiencing an issue with the internal HDD of your computer not appearing in Windows Explorer after booting from a WinToUSB drive. I'd be happy to help you with this.
First, let's try a couple of troubleshooting steps.
Open Disk Management: Right-click on the Start button, select "Disk Management" from the menu. Look for the missing internal HDD in the list of drives. If you see it, it might be in a "Not Initialized" or "Unallocated" state. Right-click on it and select "Initialize Disk" or "Create Simple Volume" to set it up.
Check device drivers: Press Windows key + X and select "Device Manager." Look for any yellow exclamation marks or error icons indicating a problem with the HDD or its drivers. If you find any, right-click on the device and choose "Update driver" to install the latest drivers.
If these steps don't resolve the issue, there might be a compatibility or configuration problem with WinToUSB and your specific hardware. I recommend reaching out to the WinToUSB support team or checking their official forums for further assistance tailored to their software.
I hope this helps you get your internal HDD to appear in Windows Explorer again. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.
Best regards,
LiamFrancis
