Only OS drive USB drives showing in library?

I have this setup:

C: SSD (Windows 10)
D: HDD
E: HDD
F: USB
G: SSD
H: USB

Only C, F and H are showing? All the drives which aren't USB are using SATA.

Ideally, I want to be able to add files from my D and E drive.

I'm using Serviio Free Edition.

I can access D and E on my network using my phone or laptop.

That's weird. The only thing that I can think of is that the permissions on your drives are screwy and Serviio cannot get access to them. Try changing the user that Serviio logs in as (in Services.msc) to your normal Win10 login user. Restart the service after that.

That did the trick!

Many thanks.

Glad it helped..... but

This tells me you have inadvertently mucked up your drive permissions on those drives, and that the System User cannot access these drives. While fixed for Serviio, this may give you ongoing issues with other programs, so you may want to address the underlying issue - Google is your friend (restore drive security permissions).

Should be non destructive but backup your drives just in case.

I think you are right, I didn't want anyone viewing certain drives, so I made it so those drives were only accessible to my account.

I thought as I was logged in, Serviio would give me access but I just had to manually give access.
