As it took me too long I canceled the process. After thatI wanted to start it again, but there was no more access to the drive in my Windows 10.
Any one have a suggestion what I can do?
Thank you, Mitch
Aborting/interrupting a drive wipe can cause issues, depending on just how it was done.
A couple of questions, there are a number of different things may have happened here so the answers will help us give the right advice.
1- What size is the drive and is it a HDD or an SSD?
2a- Were you wiping the entire drive or just the Freespace?
2b- How many passes had you set? (One is sufficient and multiple passes just take more time, especially on the TB sized drives we can get nowadays).
3- How did you 'cancel' the wipe? (eg. Used the cancel button in Drive Wiper, closed the CCleaner window, ended task in Task Manager, switched off the computer, other?)
4- What message is Windows showing you when you try to access the drive, if it is showing one at all?
PS. If it's connected by USB then I assume that you have tried simply unplugging/replugging it?
IF it was an entire drive wipe then you are not bothered about saving any files, so the easiest option is probably to initialize/format the drive.
(You may then want to wipe it again, 1-pass, to completion. Data can still be recovered from a reformatted drive - which can be useful at times).
If it was a Freespace wipe then the best way now to save/recover the files that were on it will depend on the answers to the above.
