External Hard drive not showing in finder macOS Monteray

I got a problem with macOS Monteray. I inserted an external hard drive where my hard drive didn't appear in Finder, but it showed in disk utility. The hard drive is in NTFS format. I just encountered this problem after upgrading to macOS Monteray.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.0
