Can't access to my hard-drive after fresh reinstallation

I was able to access to my hard drive before reinstallation, but now I can't access to my hard-drive on Zorin OS.
Says here: Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /media unknown error when mounting /dev/sda2

Is that drive formatted to NTFS or other?

I think so, mine Zorin OS used to be encrypted so I decided to do the fresh re-installation it. I can also access to my hard-drive on my windows laptop but the notification is telling me there's the error and telling me that i should scan it and fix.

You might try

sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda2

what would happens If I do this?

Nevermind.

That command runs essentially a file system check; similarly, you can run

sudo chkntfs /dev/sda2

There is a manpage you can read the manual:
https://linux.die.net/man/8/ntfsfix

and I halt here because you just posted "nevermind..." :stuck_out_tongue:
