Hello
the hard drive is defective ?
It can continue to operate for a certain time, but it can definitively break down, if it is not already the case!
If possible, save personal data
if it is the first system disk and not the data disk
Try a full reinstall
Be careful even if it works, it may permanently break down, save the data regularly.
This may allow you to use the computer while you find a hard drive!
You can try to help yourself with this tutorial (sorry not fully translated)

Thanks for your reply-solution. But my problem is- 1) In my HP desktop one hard disc with1 Tb was fitted and I had fitted another hard disc with 1 Tb capacity.-let me identify them as 0 the original and 1 as the additional HDD. My OS was loaded in "0" the original and data was also saved in it. the "1" additional HDD was used as back up drive. for data only. the "o" failed , so I had to reinstall OS "windows 10 in "1" from my windows disc and start the desktop for use. The data was in '0" which I could not retrieve due to HDD failure.
I hope I am clear now; tell me how to get the data from the failed HDD original fitted in HP desktop. thanks

This is why the user is invited to give more information, with the exact model of his computer, otherwise, well we can only assume !!
So if your hard drive is faulty, I gave the information in my answer in order to try to recover the data.
Unfortunately, sometimes it is not possible, if the hard drive is too damaged
There is the possibility to try some professional data recovery
But it can be very expensive, with a result that is not always interesting
