WD My Passport Viewing Issues in Explorer

My Passport external 5 TB drive no longer viewable in Explorer. Still viewed as connected on the computer and under my devices but can’t see the file contents. A DOS command prompt doesn’t see the device or any E: or F: devices.

I have changed USB cords and ports, uninstalled the device, searched for new drivers, restarted the computer several times.

the harddrive DID read on another laptop but no longer.

what giveS?

Also…downloaded the WD app and utilities programs and it doesn’t read a WD device as being added?
