Windows Vista® Inside Out Deluxe Edition

Assigning and Changing Drive Letters

You can assign one and only one letter to a volume. For all but the following volumes, you can change or remove the drive letter at any time:

• The boot volume

• The system volume

• Any volume on which the page (swap) file is stored

To change a drive-letter assignment, right-click the volume in Disk Management and choose Change Drive Letter And Paths. (You can do this in either the graphical or tabular pane.) To replace an existing drive letter, select it and click Change. To assign a drive letter to a volume that currently has none, click Add. Select an available drive letter from the Assign The Following Drive Letter list, and then click OK twice.
