How to remount an unmounted drive/partition
Hi, I have a 38GB NTFS "D:\" drive partition on Hard Disk 1 (Hard Disk 0 is
80GB and has two active partitions "C:\" and "F:\", one of which is the boot
partition.

While defragging D:\ with Paragon Hard Disk Manager, I got a message that
said that some file handles were locked, and asked if I would like to unmount
the drive to continue. Unfortunately, I suspect, I said yes to this.

Now my D:\ drive, with all my docs and photos and stuff, is displaying in
Disk Management as having no file system (but other "Healthy" and "Active").

Is there some way I can remount this drive/partition or redesignate it as
NTFS without losing my data?
