Still trying to solve this problem. I installed VMWare with Linux Mint 20.3 on my Windows 11 machine and it was able to mount the disk in the VM without issue. I have ran some tests in the VM such as Badblocks (Read Only), and SMART Self-Tests and everything comes out clean. I cant find anything wrong with the disk or filesystem yet the Paragon driver wont detect it when mounted to Win 11.
Here is a screenshot of the SMART tests as shown in Linux Mint 'Disks' GUI utility.
