• For the SviInternalDisk drive letter reassignment

  Hi all

  I use composer to deploy a set of persistent linked clones and I am running into a problem with the SviInternalDisk drive letter assignment.  The attribution to this particular drive that interferes with a script that assigns F: to a shared drive on the network, we run F:.  I can come in and change it by disk management in XP, but if I recompose what change is lost.  So my question is twofold.  First of all, this change should stick because it is a persistent linked clone?  Secondly, is it possible to reassign the drive automatically letter?  I understand a script may do that, but I wonder if there is a way to accomplish this directly by the view.  I'm under view 4.0.1.  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Welcome to the community

  > First of all, this change should stick because it is a persistent linked clone?

  No, persistent related clones get configured letter during the Create Pool Wizard. Then recompose or any operation will override manual changes

  > Secondly, is it possible to reassign the drive automatically letter?

  In View 4.5, there is an option to change the drive letter for the persistent disks

• Reassign the drive letter to the partition (D :) HP_Recovery?

  I just bought a desktop computer Pavilion (h8 - 1080t) and partitioned the hard drive to add two new partitions. I would use the drive letter D: for one of my new partitions. Can I safely reassign the drive letter of the the HP_Recovery (D partition or will that cause a problem in the future I should never need to recover the original computer configuration?)

  Hello:

  Probably not.  I believe that the recovery program looking for C and D, and if you rename D (your restore partition), you may be out of luck.

  You did a recovery of the DVD set?  See how on the link below.

  If you do a recovery of the DVD set, then I suppose you are free to rename or even delete the partition of recovery if you so inclined, you will have the DVD to restore from.

• Spectrum of HP x 360 13-4195dx: how to reassign the drive letter of the recovery Partition or delete partition?

  I just bought a new spectrum X 360 convertible. I'm trying to use Laplink PCMover PRO to move my programs etc to my old PC. But when I get to the part where I said to transfer, it tells me that there is not enough room for my D: drive. The recovery partition is D:.

  What I've done so far:

  (1.) I made a recovery USB drive using Windows 10 disk management software. (I thought that this software would allow me to remove the recovery partition after the copy, but he did this).

  2.) I tried to delete the partition by using the disk Windows 10 Manager but is not an option.

  What I want to do is delete the D: drive (I have the USB recovery) recovery and create a new partition of D: drive.

  Does anyone know what I'm missing here?

  Also, who was the person who chose D: as the recovery partition? (was that a competitor? (LOL)

  Thanks in advance,

  Dave

  I read on some other posts that the resumption of "F11" looked like a particular drive letter, so I was hesitant to remove the drive designation letter assignment. I did my recovery USB drive then I'll just delete the partition. I don't really like having all my recovery options on a HARD disk that will crash a day (LOL).

  Thank you

• Change the drive letter of the Partition Recovery

  After previous bad experiences in trying to separate the data files program, I took the habit on my previous computer under Windows to create another partition on my hard drive to store the data files. Out of habit I still do on my desktop PC with Windows XP (great program) rather than use the My Documents folder.

  I want to do the same thing on my new DV6-3142, I use to work and create a separate partition for my data files. I understand how to create a new partition on the HDD and reassign the drive letters for the existing partitions, but I want to use the letter D for her. However, it is the letter of the drive that is used for the recovery partition.

  Can I change the drive letter of the recovery partition to, say R without affecting the operation of the recovery process, or should I leave as D for the recovery of the system to work properly that I should never need her?

  Hello:

  You leave the name of the recovery partition and drive letter unchanged and your C drive: of the same name.

  If you change these, when you press the F11 key to start the recovery process, the program know what to do.

  I am a firm believer of it also have a set of factory recovery disks. For me, it is worth less than the investment of $20.  If your HARD drive fails after the warranty period, (or if you want to upgrade your HARD drive), your recovery partition doesn't help anyway.

• Drive letter assignments:

  I have an Alienware Laptop, XPS17 with 4 USB2 ports. I have a hub 7 ports USB powered, connected to a port and a Wacom tablet in another. I want to be able to reach at LEAST three, four preference, external hard drives (for back ups and data).

  Whenever I have disassemble and rebuild the system, the drive letters get reassigned. It plays havoc with my backup software. Is there a logic that can be applied to tighten the link between drive letter and physical disk? I could not get there.

  Thanks in advance for any advice.

  Thank you, Todd, it's exactly what I needed to know. By "disassemble and rebuild", I meant I have unplug the USB drives and other devices several times a year and transport them elsewhere and reassemble - often in a slightly different configuration. When I was doing that, the drive letters might get reallocated and my backup software could have hiccups. I plugged the discs in different USB ports and they kept their assigned letters. Thank you very much.

  Peace, Jim (|)  :{>

• Disconnected (removed) external hard drive still exploring and using drive letter - how to remove?

  Dear community,

  I recently removed an external hard drive of my computer laptop windows 7, I guess it was not not ready to 'remove Saveli' it at that time. The hard drive itself is fine, but the icon remained in windows Explorer because it is disconnected. I manually assigned the drive letter Q on the drive before, and it always appears like that, since this disconnect. When I click on it, there is of course a mistake ("Q is not accessible. "Access denied"). When I plug the hard drive it is listed in another letter (E), the 'Phantom' to Q drive is not affected by it at all.
  It (the ghost drive) does not appear in the computer/disk management manager and I can also not reassign the letter Q on the original hard drive (or any other - is not in the list!).
  I would use the letter Q again to the hard drive (my paths and associations of are consistent) and want to get rid of the ghost car. Any ideas how?
  Thanks in advance,
  Philipp

  FYI
  It's great that the problem corrected itself, but for general reference or other who can run in the ii, how to fix a ' stuck or ghost hand "is to remove its entry in the registry key below and then open a new market or restart.  This problem is relatively rare, but sometimes and still does not resolve itself.
  (Note this drive letter Q is used by Office, click Run and sometimes mysteriously appears for this reason, unlike your situation.)

• Loss repeated drive letter assignment to restart

  Whenever I reboot, one of my hard disks loses its drive letter assignment and must be reassigned in Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > storage > disk management.

  I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate x 64. I did not have this problem with the same hardware configuration and Vista Ultimate x 64.

  Configuration:

  2 SATA drives of 250 GB in RAID 0, which contains the Windows system directory and is assigned C:
  1 1.5 to SATA drive assigned D:
  1 DVD player, received the letter of drive E:

  After each restart, D: loses its drive letter assignment. I have him assigning other drive (for example, H: or b or G :) letters. No drive letter assigned works.

  I'm open to any solution, including the execution of a script at startup if necessary or editing the registry. Please let me know what are my options.

  Thank you.

  Click file > save as...
  locate C:\ and change the name of the file to "diskpart.bat" then save as type to change: for all files, and then tap Save

  Now, go into task scheduler in the Admin section on the control panel.

• Try to change the drive letter, but get the error "the parameter is incorrect."

  I am trying to upgrade my PC to run Windows 7 64 - bit on a new Intel Solid State Drive (SSD). I install Windows 7 from scratch on the new SSD (which uses the drive letter J) have just completed and changed the drive letter of my original system from C to M.

  My intention was to reuse the drive letter C to the SSD, but the Win 7 disk management tool will not allow the use of C. "All I get is a' setting is incorrect" error message.

  My first thought was to check the location of the Windows page file. It was indeed using drive J, so I put the pagefile on the D drive instead and restarted my PC.  However, this has not fixed the problem. I always get "the parameter is incorrect" when I try to use the letter C.

  What else could be the cause of this problem?

  David

  I tried a change of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices registry but it is just screwed to the top of the new installation of Windows on the SSD (it starts in a unusable mode "is not a real installation"). I was not too concerned by what I had already made my decision to reinstall Windows 7 after making changes in bios to disable all disks except the SSD and force a boot from the installation of Win 7 DVD.

  This relocation is now complete and the new partition on the SSD system has the C drive letter. A reboot with the other shows, active records that the original disc of BONE has been reassigned to the next available drive letter.

  My problem is thus solved. If it was the only way to do so is now a moot point.

• Question catalog: changed drive letter

  Hi all

  I just install a new SSD on my desktop and install new operating systems. All this has caused some of the drive letters (I have a bit more disks), to change. I copied my catalog to a new location and tried to load it into Lightroom and... obviously it does not find the pictures. The only change was just the hard drive. Is it possible to update the catalog to pick up everything that on another drive? Or I will have to work something around and get this drive received the letter from the former?

  The OS is Windows 7 btw.

  Thank you.

  I assume you have two choices...

  1. reassign the drive letter in Windows so that it matches what Lightroom is expected
  2. reconnect in Lightroom using Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

• Can I change the drive letter of the recovery partition?

  HP P7-1235, Win7 64 bit running. 1 TB HARD DRIVE

  I usually partition my hard drive, so that my data is separate from the operating system and applications.  the operating system is the C: partition, and my data is generally D:.  The problem is: "D:" is used by the recovery partition.

  I can change his letter to something else, and recovery still works?

  Hello

  Well, everything has been said on this subject and its okay.

  It's better to not touch the D: partition, set another letter to your other partiion, if you change the recovery partition, you won't be able to use it.

  But you can also do a thing, you can go ahead and create your copy of the recovery disks, just enter some DVD, create your copy of the recovery Image, then you can change the drive letter of the partition Recovery to E: or even delete that.

  A copy of records RRS, you can always use them to again state of the plant, and that will reformat all your partitions, create the recovery disks and do what you want and prefer with you D: partiion.

  Thank you

• Get the iPhone to recognize the change to iTunes Library the drive letter

  I'm doing something that should be extremely simple, and Apple has found a way to make it incredibly difficult. I'm moving my media to a new computer. On my old computer, all the media has been on the J: drive. On my new computer, it's all about the D: drive. Other than that, the folder structure is exactly the same. Apple says that in documentation for migrating to a new computer, activate the option "Keep iTunes folder organized Media". There are several reasons why this is not an option, mainly because iTunes is the absolute worst to organize your media folder. I've seen cases where iTunes dumps simply all your files perfectly organized in a single folder for you to figure out what that is when you get the file you need. No thanks, I'm perfectly capable of organizing my own files. Not to mention, my multimedia files are on a data disc and the app folder, where the files to iTunes library is on an SSD with limited storage. Then... Guard iTunes library trace the location of support using a "iTunes Music Library.xml" file. I've updated this file to use the new location and when I open iTunes on my new computer, everything is perfect. All my media is there with all my custom illustrations I apply (iTunes can also be really terrible at the corresponding work on music not purchased via iTunes!). If great, let's get my iPhone recognized now because it's really the only reason why I use iTunes. As soon as I connect my phone and it starts the synchronization process, it crushes everything in the XML file and returns all my music in the original location (now the music in the iTunes library has!'s next to all my music sync). You're going to go to a song and it will ask you the new location, I can go to, and then iTunes invites even to use this new location to update other files 'disappeared', but the problem is this feature only searches the subfolder where the particular file is located, you have access to what is in this case an album. Do you know how many albums I have? You mean I have to go to every single album and update the location manually? Once again, no thanks! So my thought at this point, ok, let's just resync all the music with the phone, that well that is always a huge pain given the extremely slow transfer speeds from your computer to your phone (Apple Hi, meet 3.1 USB or same USB 3.0) in combination with the size of my library (we're talking days to complete!), it's even less of a pain then go each file (or a piece of each album) and updated the location. On a side note - it would be really great if the synchronization on the Wi - Fi technology still works... I mean, they had what, over 4 years to operate and you're still lucky if your phone is recognized by Wi - Fi. That means I have to leave my phone on my computer for days and who really has the ability to do? Sorry, I digress. So, I removed all of my music from my phone and got iTunes to be happy with the new drive letter. Great, let's start the arduous process to sync my music on my phone. I re - activate the option synchronize my music and what happens, my iPhone again overwrites my iTunes library with the former location of media! Excuse me, but how is it reasonable to have the phone, which is a destination and contains a subset of your library, to be the registration system for which the files are stored in the source? I mean come on! This is absurd! I've always hated that Apple is owner and forces you to use iTunes (some of the worst software ever developed) to manage/sync your media. But for years, I have it justified by saying iPhone works simply. No worries. Well, I'll say, it does not just work and my insinuation that Apple made simple products that just don't work no longer holds water. At this point, I am very close to say goodbye to the iPhone and switch to Google project. I'm tired of less expensive phones friends surpassing my overpriced device that uses obsolete technology. Sort of, I'm sorry to dump all this on the community, but it is absolutely ridiculous that it's so complicated to change a drive letter and I am at my wits end. Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer a solution.

  I'm doing something that should be extremely simple, and Apple has found a way to make it incredibly difficult.

  If you was to move your iTunes LibrRy to another drive, follow these instructions: How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support

  If you have already moved successfully, just launch iTunes while holding down the button Optio/alternate, then choose the location of the library.

• Tecra S1: No drive letter for USB keys assignments

  Hello!

  Once from time to time, two of our portable Toshiba S1 will not assign a drive letter to a USB drive attached.

  Win XP Pro recognizes and loads the drivers, but they will not get a letter. Oddly enough, this doesn't always happen. Sometimes, a drive letter is assigned. It also happens with sticks that hard worked prior to fine, but it won't work again later, the.

  Obviously, uninstall the drivers help temporarily.

  Is there a permanent solution to this problem?

  See you soon

  Hello

  Have you already checked if there is a new update of the BIOS for your laptop model? Maybe update the BIOS can help. In any case I don't know if there is a solution, because as you know it's always more fun with USB keys. Some of them work well, and some of them are not recognized by the operating system.

  Hey,.

  Wait a moment, Matt: do you have upgraded to Windows 7 with the new CD/DVD drive or do you have it before you exchanged the drive?

  You get this message from Windows?

  If so, it seems that it s not installed correctly and you should try removing the upper and lower filters in the registry:
