In the picture on the right, C: is a "folder" not a disk.
It's always best to post a screen shot of Disk Management, stretched out so we can see... everything.


Like so...

Disk Management is much more informative than a System Restore dialog window.

Open system restore by clicking system restore at the top of that window.

Select the "missing drive" and manually make a restore point. It should clear up itself.

If that doesn't work, turn off system restore, Restart, then select the C: drive and turn on system restore again. The "missing" should be gone.
