Running Linux Mint 19.2 Cinnamon.
I have an external hard drive (exfat) mounted on my linux machine. I needed something off moved to my windows machine, so I pulled it and plugged it into my windows machine. Windows machine recognized it, and I can access all files. Unplugged it from the windows machine and put it back in the linux machine and no dice. I can access the file structure, see everything, but when I try to open any of the .mkv's I get an error. The VLC log shows an Input/Output error, a pre-fill buffer error, and a cannot peek error. I am hoping this is a simple thing that I screwed up and can be fixed easily. Ideas?
When I try to copy and paste a file from the drive on linux, I get an error splicing file: input/output.
More info: lsblk shows the drive (I can tell by size), but it is not named like the other drives.
