Crystal disk info

disk utilities (windows), see if it's detected by windows

This happened to me with 1 game earlier today, and it made me reinstall just like 20MBS of data, and found the rest. Was yours also on steam???

How did you fix it? For me it's every game on my D drive.

im stupid, i just reread your question and i misinterpreted it

 

assuming you're using steam, goto steam, 'download' a game but set the destination to your games folder

Wouldn't this just download the game twice? And also like 30 games that are on my D drive got uninstalled, do I have to basically reinstall every game?

no, assuming the game is already downloaded and steam doesn't detect the game

if it randomly uninstalled without your permission, i would highly suggest checking crystal disk info to see if the drive is going to kick the bucket soon

 

but yes, you will have to reinstall the game if it got deleted.

Okay dude, just tried it and it worked. Every game that was "Uninstalled" on my D drive is now back. Thank you.

glad you got it figured out.  In case anyone else is having a different issue, I had a very similar issue on Sunday but I could not see the files on explorer, the steam library on that drive showed as corrupted.  I ended up fixing it with chkdsk and all was good.
