OK, you have done a good job.
By way of explanation, we are using WinRAR just to explore the drive in question, since it can show all hidden and even superhidden files and enable us to delete any unwanted files. No other WinRAR operation is required.
Just doubleclick on the selected drive to show its contents.
Getting back to your screenshots,
1. Remove any other external drive/s and have only the drive on which we operate.( I see another Letrang external drive.)
2. Explore the problem drive. I think PRIVATEz is the only folder that contains all your data. Leave it alone. Select Letrang Shortcut , right click and "Delete files". Select Thumbs db and do the same. Next select System Volume Information and ditto. This will clear its contents to the Recycle Bin but the folder itself will remain. Let it. Finally repeat the operation on the Recycle Bin. First it will clear its contents. Repeat the operation again to delete the Recycle Bin itself. Give administrator permission if required. ( A new Recycle Bin will be created). Close WinRAR.
3. Now safely remove your external drive. (If need be shut down your computer, plug it out and reboot..)
4. Plug-in your external drive and check whether you are able to gain access to your data.
If not, we shall then get into Recovery mode.
I have other observations on the screenshots but for now I shall take a break, have a shave and shower and be back.
