Solution 2:

Before following below steps to resolve this problem, we suggest that you can back up that partition which failed to assign drive letter in advance and you can back up that partition using sector by sector way with Aomei Backupper :

 

1).Press Win +R and type “gpedit.msc” to open Group Policy

2).Locate to Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Device Installation -> Device Installation Restrictions

3).Find “Prevent installation of devices not described by other policy settings” and set it as“Not configured”

P.S:It is not recommended to modify or delete the key directly from the registry, because this will leave some residual information in the registry, so it is recommended to use the Group Policy Editor to deal with it.
