Hello, i bought a new laptop with 128 gb ssd and 1 tb hdd, it have endless os on its navite, the os placed on 1 tb hdd, then i install windows on ssd, after that, i get problem, on windows disk management, 1 tb hard disk read as 931 gb instead of 980 gb that appears on endless os, how can i get my 49 gb again?

"but" does not matter. EndlessOS may have simply been reading in a different method.
And 1,000 minus 20 for the OS would have shown you 980.

Again...you've lost nothing.

A 1TB drive reading as 931GB is absolutely normal and to be expected.
You've not 'lost' any drive space. It is simply a different in reporting.

Base 2 vs base 10
Computer vs human.
