Amit,

I tried all of the suggestions that you had. Cheers for your help. None of them worked so I Uninstalled Windows x. THAT worked!!! I have all of my folders back and all the files intact and working peachy! I am unsure if the fact that I had a shortcut on my main drive (the main Os drive where I upgraded to West 10) that led to the slave drive made the folders corrupt or if MANY folders nested within each of the primary folders made me become the message. If I upgrade in the hereafter, I will UNPLUG the SATA cablevision to the slave drive, NOT have whatsoever "shortcuts" leading to folders on the slave bulldoze and try information technology over again.

thanks community and AMIT in item!!!!

UPDATE: I went back to Windows 7. I unplugged the slave drive and deleted the shortcuts OFF of the Windows seven desktop (that pointed to folders on the slave drive). I Reinstalled Windows 10 and was able to access the folders on the slave simply fine - in that location  are NO corrupt files or folders!

thank you!

As well, I had OneDrive backing up files (I am paying for the OneDrive service) and it seemed to corrupt my e-mail with Windows 10 and then over again, subsequently going dorsum to Windows 7, I but went to the email pst folder and gave information technology admin privileges and the email is back also. I LOVED the Windows 10 interface simply volition not go back to W 10 to avoid any more than bug. Keeping Windows 7 Pro for at present.

You lot are lucky. Everything was nonetheless fine yesterday but I had the same scenario every bit you ingather up this forenoon in a dual boot organization. It started out being just one archive folder which was suddenly inaccessible (at least 50% of the hardrive contents) from Windows 7. The residue of the folders and files on the drive were yet accessible at that point.

I booted dorsum into Windows 10 to see if it could withal access the missing binder contents. Win10 immediately started a consistency bank check on the drive, wrote some data and so booted to the desktop. At this point Windows Explorer couldn't find annihilation at all on the disk and came back with a 'not accessible' error. Properties showed 0 used infinite and 0 free space on the deejay. I rebooted into Windows seven and it too automatically scanned the disk for consistency and wrote some data. Sure plenty later on the Os finished booting it reported the aforementioned matter - 0 free space and 0 used space on that bulldoze.

A basic browse with Easus data recovery software only establish files written by Windows checkdisk utility. Currently running a deep scan with Recuva to see if I can get back any of the lost data.

I may try your disconnect-reconnect routine before the recovery software writes anything on the deejay but I'one thousand pretty sure it is already hopeless at this point.

That was the last straw for Windows ten as far as I'm concerned. I'll be running Windows vii until its end of life and then see what else is on offering at that time.
