Hide Drives using Command Prompt

By Unknown Saturday, June 8, 2013 0 comments

Hello friends, hello to all. This method is much easier and simplified to hide a drive. Just make sure you do it correctly. Here are the steps:


  • Searh cmd and run as administrator. (Press WIN+R and type cmd, then Enter)
  • Type Mountvol in the command prompt and press ENTER. It will display the ID of the units, note the ID of the drive you want to hide. 
       We observed up to F: ie

        \\? \Volume {14394d58-7caf-11e2-af9b-806e6f6e6963}\
        F:\


  • To hide the drive, you must type in the command prompt:
mountvol F: /d
  • To return, you would type:
mountvol f: [id volume] (Volume ID is what we have noted above), our order was:
mountvol f: \\?\Volume {14394d58-7caf-11e2-af9b-806e6f6e6963}\

Note: Be careful to note volume ID, if you do it wrong, you will lose all data on that drive. You should try this with the system unit.
