More information may be needed here. You formatted a drive in your pc, but have now moved it into an external enclosure? What type of enclosure, and what connection does it use? And you are saying the external does not show up in Windows? Any details you can add will be helpful.

Go to disk management and see if it shows there. You may need to assign it a drive letter.

Are there any drivers that came with the enclosure? If so, install them.
