    How to remove GPT Protective Partition after unmounting Samba drive?

    After I unmount an HDD from my server that was being used in a Samba share, I cannot access it in my windows computer due to a GPT Protective Partition.

    Is there any way that I can remove this protection in Ubuntu without totally formatting the drive?

    It is formatted in NTFS.

    Not sure what partition you are discussing?
    Windows reads gpt just fine, since Windows 7.

    Post this for that drive:
    sudo parted -l
