So even thought i had disabled UAC from Control Panel > User Accounts > Change User Account Control Settings to Never Notify but it still didn't help

I had to disable the UAC from registry, this i remember from working on a HP software where it specifically told to disable from registry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

In the details pane (Right Pane)

locate the EnableLUA key (REG_DWORD type).

Double click to Modify.

In the Value data box, type 0 (zero),

and then click OK.

restart the computer.

I would recommend checking whether Command Prompt can recognize it or not by using the diskpart command and then list volume.

It will show all activated drives on your Windows computer that Command Prompt can recognize.

diskpart
list volume
