Can't get my external hard drive to mount on windows 11, 4tb drive NTFS MBR

Post Body

Now, this harddrive was being used on a ubuntu server, which was accessed and managed through my main work station.

Now that I have hooked it up to my main PC (I'm away from home for a couple of months, and need the media on there) it won't mount, and it simply shows 2 "unallocated" partitions in Disk Management. I don't want to convert to GPT because I am worried about data loss, but I also want to access the data. When I use software designed to view linux systems through windows I can see the directory structure, and all of the files are there, fully intact, but it only allows me to "recover" the file to windows. This WILL work if it has to, but I'm curious if there is a solution that will allow me to navigate the drive, and open files from it??

Thank you for your time in reading!!
