Hello, So here it is,
I bought a Samsung M3 Portable hard drive of 1 TB for my PC which was running out of space, and after buying a new computer, my hard drive was no longer really useful so I lent it to my son for his Xbox One, he formatted it to install his games on the console, After a few months he returned it to me but my PC no longer recognized it.
After some research, I found out that my son hadn't read the message "After formatting, your device will only be usable on Xbox One consoles."
MY PCs detect it, it shows up in the device management menu but not in my file explorer, I manage quite well with consoles and computer systems but I can't seem to use my hard drive, even after driver updates and disabling it.
I really need my hard drive, thank you for helping me...
