Solve : Why can I see the Windows 10 drive in Windows 7?

Answer» <html><body><p>Hi all,<br/>Recently I bought a new SSD.<br/>I installed Windows 7 first in the first partition (40GB), and then Windows 10 in the other partition (80GB).<br/>Then I was learning how to use the new features in Windows 10 without switching to Windows 7 during the Dual <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/boot-251147" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BOOT">BOOT</a>.<br/>When I was <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/using-1441597" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about USING">USING</a> Windows 10, I could only <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/see-630247" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SEE">SEE</a> one Drive (C), there was not any other parition.<br/>But some strange things happened when I chose to use Windows 7 in the Dual Boot.<br/>After I logged on Windows 7 and double clicked My Computer, I could see there were <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/two-241629" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TWO">TWO</a> main drives (C and D drives)<br/>The C drive surely was for Windows 7 because of its volume (40GB), and D Drive was 80GB. When I clicked to see what's iniside the D drive, I could see a Windows folder and a Windows.old folder, and some other folders.<br/><br/>I have no idea why this happened.<br/>Could you help me please?<br/><br/>Thank you.<br/><br/><br/>Just leave it alone.

If so, do nothing.<br/></blockquote><br/>Thank you for the quick help, Geek-9pm.<br/>I was so worried about it because that was my first time learning how to make a Dual-Boot.The system will always designate the drive to which you boot (the system drive) as C: drive. If you installed W7 on c: and then installed W10 on d:, when you boot to W10 the system will change the designations so that it boots to what is now c: drive, but was previously d: drive when you were in W7.The Win7 install sees 10 because 7 is on the C:/1st partition...<br/>When 10 was installed it is on another partition and does not recognise C: because in fact the PC is faked into thinking the 10 partition is in fact C:...when it's not.</body></html>
