Wd element hard drive 1 TB

I just tried to format my 1 TB WD element external hard drive from exfat file system to NTFS file system, I used easyus software to format it. But in the process the formatting failed and my desktop all other Third party software couldn’t detect the drive it only appears in Device manager. I tried diskpart chkdsk and other things no solution. So could you please help me how to fix it

Hi ablelen ,

Probably you should try rebooting the PC and then try to format it using disk management.

Thanks!
