I'm having lenovo k3 note with marshmallow update.
It features to convert external memory card to internal & I did so. I used migrate option in settings-->storage. But it copied lot of data to device storage, hence it end up in low memory space & I can't use my mobile. So I formatted mobile. But now it asks me to format my memory card, which is having lot of important datas. Even this memory card is not recognizing in laptop. It only allows to format to portable or internal storage in my mobile.Please suggest me to recover my datas. Thanks in advance!!!
 
The problem is that when you adopted the sd card it was encrypted (and also reformatted to a format that Windows won't understand even if it weren't encrypted). Adopting the card really does make it a part of the phone storage, at the cost of the flexibility of having a removable card.

So unfortunately I don't know a way round this. If your phone cannot read the card I don't think anything else will be able to.
