How to mount a gpt disk?

Installed Windows 10, there is a 2TB disk marked as GPT.
In disk management, it is shown as a "GPT protected partition", but it does not show the fs, you cannot format it, assign a letter, or do any other action.
Is there any way to mount the disk? Or just formatting through the command line?

I would begin to solve such a problem by returning to a well-known past. There is software that allows you to convert GPT->MBR without data loss (for example, Paragon HDM, it is available on many widely used LiveDVD/LiveUSB recovery tools). You just need to make the number of partitions on the disk no more than 4 beforehand (this is not difficult, the UEFI bootloader and the OS recovery partition suggest deletion, and do not forget to disable UEFI in the BIOS).
After the conversion, you may need to restore the boot - processing the active (system) partition with the BootICE utility or similar (from the same LiveDVD / LiveUSB).
