Open a command prompt and run the following commands. Press enter after each command.

e:
dir/p

Do you see your files? If so, go back to the C drive and run the following commands

c:
mkdir bak
e:
copy *.* c:\bak

If there are any subdirectories in the e: drive, cd to them and run the same copy command.

Then open explorer to view your files.
