I just set up a dual boot on my second drive (D drive) without the usual Manjaro software. I partitioned it first, then discovered I could do it through Manjaro. I kept working until everything functioned properly. Both C and D drives appear to work, but I can't see the drive in disk management anymore. Any help would be appreciated!

D might have Manjaro set up with NTFS, even though Linux usually uses Ext4. This could be why Windows can't access the files and why it appears as NTFS.

I run my game library on Windows using D, and everything seems to function properly. I just added Manjaro to the drive via a USB stick. Please forgive any confusion. This is my first experience with Linux. @Eigenvektor

Yes, you can still reach your NTFS partition on the D drive. To see how the HDD is divided in Linux, run a command like `lsblk` or check the partition table using tools such as `fdisk` or `parted`.
