Full story, I have not touched our modded WII U in ages. The kids play the WII games all the time. I wanted to add a WII game for them but windows didnt recognize the disc. And i think windows did something to the drive because now its not recognized by GX or windows, and partitions seem flakey. Using Google AI to help me recover I ran "testdisc_win" and analyzing i found 3 "deleted" or "d" partitions. I have played with making them "P" as i think they were all marked "d" to start. But i cant even remember now. I was able to recover 1 game on the 3rd partition but there should be a ton of them. Any suggestions to save their games? I cant remember if the saved games info is on the SD card or the loader gx. Its their saves i am really worried about. I could format and repopulate the drive no issue. But I think from what i have read the saved games are on the loader usb drive?

Any advice welcome. I cant remember if its WBFS , fat32, or ntfs, but my guess is some form of wbfs as windows would not recognize it.
