DRIVE DOESN'T SHOW IN WINDOWS EXPLORER DUE TO FAILED HACKINTOSH ATTEMPT

Ballie

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Earlier today I tried installing mac os high sierra on my pc (without success). So i made a partition of 80 gb of my 2 tb hdd using the mac os installer. But now I want to play some steam games but it cant find any.

Windows explorer does show the drive (drive D) but only shows 99.9mb.

Whilst disk management shows the full 2 tb:

Does anyone have any idea to restore this (with keeping the data)? I wouldnt mind if the mac os data got lost.

you have wiped your entire 2TB hard drive, was there anything important on it? (i don't consider games important, because you can download them again)

Quote or Tag people so they know that you've replied.
