Did you have any important data in it?
Download and install MiniTools Partition Wizard Free Edition 9.1 (30.49 MB) from here
Recovery with Partition Wizard:
Run Partition Wizard 7.
Your disk1 may be shown as "unallocated" and without a drive letter.
Click on Partition Recovery Wizard and Next.
In the Partition Recovery Wizard screen, select the drive to be recovered and click on Next.
Select Full Disk, and then Next.
Select Quick Scan, Next
If the partition is found select and double click on it. Does the Partition Explorer show all the files?
Close the Partition Explorer and click on Finish.
The Main Screen will show the restored Drive but may be without a drive letter.
Right click on the drive, click on Change letter and give a drive letter.
Click on Apply to execute the two pending operations.
The partition is restored and your drive will be functional as before and you can access the files and folders.

You are welcome and thank you for your appreciation!
Yes it is very important to backup all your data's often, not only one backup in single drive, my personal suggestion is that always try to keep 2 backups in separate drives may be ( external hard disk or Flash drives)
