How to restore hdd to Thunar after update? GPartEd still shows device & partition [Solved]

I have an ssd (sdb) with MX and a hdd (sda) for data. Haven't updated in a while.
After updating today, my data hdd is no longer listed in side panel under Devices.
I normally login for access to the data drive. GPartEd still shows both drives.
( I suppose I should copy latest snapshot to 'user' [Done!]. And to a stick (Ventoy? hmmm...). )
How can I get Thunar to list my data hdd partition again?
May be moot. It's working normally now.
( I suspect a prior update added a requirement that all restarts be full power-off "cold-boot". Perhaps splitting boot into boot & EFI ? )

Please post the QSI using the copy for forum option. Thanks.

Sorry, I don't understand: doesn't the forum software display the text file the MX QSI tool generated?

No, once you 'copy for forum' the text the QSI generates, then you need to paste it here. You attached a text file, which a) users cannot see unless they are logged in, and
b) it doesnt format the same way, and is a less readable.

I'm OK with "users cannot see unless they are logged in" as it provides security, however minimal.
I use a browser add-on to invert colors, as I don't find the default phpBB theme very readable.
I've seen several QSI posts inside tiny "CODE" boxes that render them even harder to view.
Is there a way to convert the text file to, say, PDF format for readability?
Or expand to a "popout" sub-window, like for images?

Here is the normal method... (copy for forum button and then paste it here ) this keeps all formatting in place and is much easier to read.
