Sorry if this is not the place to ask I also tried on a different instance as well

I bought an adapter to retrieve old files from ancient hard drives and I didn’t save the stuff from one I had looked at. Now though when I plug it in it will only read as an android file system? It has 2 disk images now, one is labeled Presario D: which shows up as an android backup or something but all folders are empty. The other is Local Disk E: and if I click it it literally just locks up my file explorer to the point I have to restart the PC.

Any thoughts or ideas?

I may have plugged it into an android phone at some point? Not sure though.

    Try copying the image to another drive and see what you can find with something like ddrescue.
