Issue : 2nd Drive not mapped in File Import Dialogue of Kdenlive

You are using Dynamic Disc on D:\ which Kdenlive can't detect. 
Dynamic Disc is depreciated by Microsoft (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/basic-and-dynamic-disks ) and you should convert it back to basic disc (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/disk-management/change-a-dynamic-disk-back-to-a-basic-disk).

Thanks @emohr for providing me perfect solution. As my problem is solved, I am changing ticket status as resolved and fixed. Thank you once again.

-----------


The problem persisted due to the Disc was Dynamic, not Basic.

As kdenlive do not support dynamic disks, I required to convert disk from dynamic to basic.

I have followed this URL to perform required action : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/disk-management/change-a-dynamic-disk-back-to-a-basic-disk

I have used its first method of removing all volumes and format the drive. As I was having very less data in disk.

But you can use alternative method to convert dynamic disk to basic disk. Just search on google/youtube to convert dynamic disk to basic without losing data.

You will get enough results to perform the required action.
