@whoamit, Welcome to HP Support Community,

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

Partition the existing hard disk drive (HDD) or solid-state drive (SSD) to create a separate storage area (partition) using empty space on the drive. Windows labels the new partition with its own drive letter and uses the partition as a separate drive. Making a new partition might be useful if you need to share files on a drive, but want to prevent access to your personal files by keeping those files on a separate drive.

I suggest you refer to this document for further troubleshooting: HP PCs - Partitioning and naming drives (Windows) | HP® Support

I hope these steps help resolve the issue
