Fixing mouting on WD Drive (SmartWare Virtual Drive) and .rules usage

Hey, so since my 10y old HDD "My Passport Essential", by WD, has this force-installed SmartWare Software as Virtual CD/Drive and Kodi does not recognize the usual disk space
I am not able to access any files. And I am not able to disable the Virtual Disk since it is not possible to download a firmware update from WD's Servers for my drive.

I found this solution posted by Chewitt few months ago but have no clue how to use/execute .rules files or rules in general

LibreELEC.tv/40-modeswitch.rules at master · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

I hope you can help, thanks

UPDATE:

Found an old updater for my HDD, seems like I was able to deactivate the Virtual CD Drive, but Kodi is still not able to see my drive, its in exFAT Format, can this be a problem?

UPDATE2:

Restarted my Raspberry Pi and everything works finally
