WD My Passport Not Recognized

[missp00pie]

Hello,

I have a 1TB WD My Passport that's suddenly not recognized.

When I plug it in, I hear the "ding" sound that it's recognized. It appears under Device Manager > Disk Drives.

It does not appear on Disk Management and My Computer.

I've tried different ports, cables and laptops.

Any possible step I might've missed? It's full of data and I really don't want to lose them.

Thanks!

If you can detect the WD drive in Disk management just right-click and choose assign path or drive letter and there it goes on to display in My Computer I dont know if something similar can be done under the Device Manager at all.......
Otherwise there could be a way via the WD Website to update the passport or drivers or something
