I had some unallocated Free Space of 260MB on my 1TB HDD. I used Gparted Live OS to extend my HDD's Size. Gparted moved all the data to left side of the HDD and had extended the partition size. Took a whole Night for the process to complete.

When I first booted into Windows every partition looked as same size with the files. But when I opened a folder, I was left with this error

Error's Screenshot

Any folder I open on any partition of the HDD gives me the same message. FYI, I have Windows Installed on a Separate SSD.

Is there any way to make my files & folders back to an accessible state?

(Please don't suggest some Data Recovery Software. Suggest me some ways to get my data back )

I noticed that all my 3 partitions had been merged into one NTFS Partition...

MY HDD was a Dynamic Drive. But now after extending my partion using Gparted My HDD Shows itself as a Basic Drive.

Using chkdsk doesn't help. It states that my drive is RAW.

Solved the issue myself.

Use AOMEI Partition Assistant to Delete the Volume (Without wiping the data) From the Storage device in which the partitions are inaccessible.

Use the Partition Recovery Tool From AOMEI Partition Recovery and run Full Scan. (Might take a few hours depending on the size and speed of your Storage Device).

Now the Partitions will be listed. Select the Partitions you wish to Recover and Select Recover.

All your inaccessible/lost partitions will be available back as before.
