How to Change Drive Letter in Windows 10?

Configurare noua (How To)

Situatie

Even though Windows automatically assigns a drive letter to any external storage device you connect to it, there are unique occasions where it tries to give an already-assigned letter to a new drive. That’s just one credible reason you might see a need to change a drive letter; the rest is up to you, but more important is for you to know how to do it.

Solutie

1. Press on the “Windows” + “R” key. When the “Run” window pops up, type this command in its search field: diskmgmt.msc.

2. Hit the “Enter” key and “Disk Management” will be launched.

3. You will see a list of drives in the “Disk Management” window. Pick out the one you want to change the letter of, then right-click on it and select “Change Drive Letter and Paths.”
