    Did it display Access denied?

    Open administrative command prompt and type:

    diskpart

    automount scrub

    It should display:

    Diskpart successfully scrubbed the mount point settings in the system.

    Automatic mounting of the volumes enabled

    Reboot

    Open Drive letter view > click view > click refresh > post new results

    Hi,
    Firstly, I suggest that you could uninstall the game.
    Create a new user account to log on PC. Then reinstall the game to check. Then use checkdsk tool below:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/53235.windows-10-built-in-tools-for-hard-disk-health-check.aspx
    If the issue still insists, check the Disk Management, how many disks you could see? such as disk 0, disk 1.
    Have you found any unallocated space in Disk Management?
    We could use diskpart command to check if disk include E drive.

    For disk drive letters consider:

    a) diskpart commands
    b) third party software

    Open administrative command prompt (ACP) and type or copy and paste: (all at one time)

    Disk 0 WDC 120 has 4 partitions with C: on partition 4

    Disk 1 ST 1000 has 1 partition with D: on partition 1
