Right click>Properties>Tools>Error Checking. Then run check disk and hopefully it will fix any minor errors on the drive. You can check the option to repair bad sectors on it as well. Does your MOBO support SMART capability? You need to run HDD diagnostics immediately after this

It could be very serious. You need to recover your data immediately as it could be that your entire hard drive is failing. If nothing else works then you need to use an advanced recovery software. Get Data Back for NTFS is the best software imo and i have safely recovered files from dead or failing drives plenty of times using it.

And don't use any bad sector repairing softwares. Usually they strain the drive further and they make things even worse. I was stupid enough to buy usual bollocks of such software companies and lost entire 1TB of data and 5 years of my project work.
