Just today, a new drive appeared out of nowhere: F

F is not USB, not disk and not the normal integrated drive(which is currently C and D).

When trying to open, it requests admin access. Upon granted access, it still denies with this error:

You have to use the category Security to access this drive

Running a virus scan that lists the files while it runs, some files include microsoft and MSI boot files

What is this drive? Why did it suddenly appear now?

you go to command prompt, you can search it in search bar at your bottom left of windows and run it as administrator.

type in diskpart. hit enter.

type in list volume. hit enter.

you must find what number of your drive F in the list. let's say it is on number 3

type in select volume 3 and hit enter.

after that type in remove letter=F and hit enter.

Microsoft livesupport helped me with this issue. And they said it safe to remove it.

Goodluck! Have a nice day! :)
