    Thanks - the next step is chkdsk aka Disk Check.

    In the Windows search,

    type cmd, right-click it, and choose run as administrator.

    execute: chkdsk E: /f

    Command and see if the files recover using disk check.

    Keep us posted.

    This what the local disk looks like, does nothing when I click on it.

    Also it shows This Computer as having all my files in the disk, I can't bring them up.
