Virtual CloneDrive assign Driveletter

[Davinci28]

Hi,

Is it posible to set the Virtual Drive to another Driveletter using a commandline?

I need the Virtual Drive to be the V: drive.


Thanks,

Vincent

You can remap the drive letter in Disk Management just as you would for a physical drive.

The question was: "...using a commandline?..."

Not the Disk management GUI

This vbs code does it nicely:

Of course you need to edit it to the desired letter:

Case DeviceID1
x = ChgDrv ("I:", <------ change this to what you want ie V:

That worked fine in XP, but no longer in Win7
Anybody has a good script that can do it in 7 ?

Thanks

I had the same problem. I posted a suggestion to assign a "permanent" or "long-term" use.

You can solve by going to Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Disk Management.

This will show you all the drives and the letters assigned. You will notice that Clone Drive has a letter. The properties show the drive letter. Use the dropdown list to select a letter you wish, maybe one farther down.

Then you can use the upper letters for your previous assigned links etc.

It would be good if we can just assign one at installation time. Then we never have to go through this small irritant.

Come on guys, that is not a single user machine, it is multi user, multi machine environment

I need to have it scripted so users (that are users, not admins) can do the change themselves to predefined letter (lots depends on this very letter)

If it needs to be a predefined letter, the admin needs to set it in Disk Management right after installing VCD; if it's already installed, you gotta go back to each PC and do it yourself. (If you "ghost" your PCs, install VCD and set its letter on the initial PC before making your ghost image.)

Since VCD uses a low-level device driver that emulates a hardware drive controller, Windows sees its drives as physical optical drives. Once VCD is installed, whatever you do to set the drive letters for your physical optical drives should work with VCD drives as well.

Unless SlySoft's own network admin has some special trick to do it, there's not much more we can tell you. Most VCD users use it at home, not work; most of us are simply not familiar with tools for setting up business PCs.
