    I've got an old External HDD and plugging it in reveals no files.

    Show hidden files and I can see some stuff. Explorer reckons 19,000 files.

    But scanning the drive with MS Defender shows the file count at 345,000 and counting so I presume there's more files I can't see somewhere.

    Doesn't appear to be encrypted or anything. Looks like I must've loaned it to someone at some point as it has their name on a folder. Any ideas? Maybe the counts are right, it's just files/folders are owned by another user so Explorer isn't counting them?

    Actually, it's FAT32 and doesn't appear to have file permissions anyway so hmm
