The important questions here that appear not to have been asked are

Where were you transferring the files to on the computer - was that to D drive
What method did you use to set up this transfer

Is it an Android OS phone.

and I previously told you how to get permissions in cmd prompt - when you say you tried chkdsk
Presuming that was chkdsk on D - have you been back to cmd prompt and tried it
this is the screenshot when I use chkdsk /f
Image
 
OK have you seen that on your screenshot the disk is shown as unformatted
That means that the file system on the drive is damaged so that Windows cannot see it.

On your last screenshot you are issuing a chkdsk cmd on drive C
NOT D

Are you able to stay with me step by step or do you need to sign off for this session
If you are able to stay I will guide you through this step by step

DO YOU WANT THE DATA on the drive if possible OR are we simply going for a format so that you can then see the drive, but it will have NO data

yup, if you wanna switch over to another messenger system lemme know

I would like to see the data - pull any needed uncorrupted data and then just screw the rest (most of the data is just downloaded movies and the office LOL)
 
NO I cannot switch ity must be on the site
What I was asking was
Do you wish me to guide you step by step
AND
Do you want to try and save the data on the drive OR can we go straight for a format - you will lose everything on D if we do that

also do i have to refresh my webpage everytime i want to see when u reply?

Looks like my D drive isnt even being recognized
 
YES you do need to refresh
That is not going to help us as Diskpart cannot find it either
Go here
Partition Find and Mount: Download
download that
run the install and when you have it open on this window post back
DOES IT SEE THE DRIVE THAT is the 931GB

Have you got the program downloaded and opened it
OR is there a problem

Last reply last page shows u that I got an error when trying to use program
There is no mention of that until the post above - what is the error
Although it does not say it is OK for 10 it is as I have have just installed it to send you the screenshot

OK it is too complicated to try and sort that out at this late stage
Go to device manager
that is either control panel and device manager
OR type it on the desktop in the search bar and when it appears above click to open it
expand disk drives with the drop arrow
IS the drive seen there

No it is not
 
OK
There is a possibility I can solve it, but not in this session, as it is 0200 in the UK and I have to sign off
IF you want the easy way BUT YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA
Go back to Disk Genius where you posted the screenshot in post 8
and this time select the 931GB drive shown as unformatted on your screenshot and then click FORMAT

IT IS VITAL you select the correct disk OTHERWISE you will lose the data on the main OS drive

As I said it may be possible to solve this, but it will take more time
SO you can either go the format route
OR you can wait for someone else or until I return but that will not be until 1930hrs UK time
