Hey, your Windows 10 on the 2TB HDD is getting corrupted. The OS backup from the latest November build is stored in one partition. You tried using a Ubuntu live CD but couldn't mount the HDD. Can you install Ubuntu on one of the partitions without formatting it? Looking for more guidance.

You can repair the corrupted Windows partition and then install Ubuntu on it.

I don't want to do that. Here is my plan. Install Ubuntu side by side on windows. Boot using Ubuntu copy the windows 10 setup into USB. Boot using USB and repair windows 10. Disk is important data which I don't want to format. So need suggestions now.

Power on in recovery mode, open the terminal, switch to the C partition, and execute chkdsk.

Follow the steps to configure the HDD as top priority. After that, when you reach the motherboard logo, notice the error prompt to insert a bootable disk or drive.

The error message you encounter when attempting to mount the partition in Ubuntu Live typically involves a file system-related issue, such as "No such file or directory" or "Permission denied." It may also display a generic error indicating the partition cannot be found or accessed.

I discovered another option. Added a Windows 10 disk and saw the entire 2TB as unallocated. Assistance needed.

Remove the HDD from the computer, place it in an external enclosure, and start it via USB (use another machine if needed). If this doesn’t work, boot from the original drive and examine the disk on the faulty drive. Most repairs will require assistance from another computer.
