I've been using my external hard drive without any issues, but now it's not appearing in File Explorer. It still shows in Device Manager and it says that the device is working properly, and that the best driver is already installed. I really need to access my files, so any advice on what to do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Have you checked if the external hard drive appears in Disk Management? Sometimes it needs to be assigned a drive letter or initialized there.
If it’s not showing up in Disk Management, try unplugging the drive and plugging it back in or using a different USB port. Additionally, check if it works on another computer to rule out any issues with your current system.
