Change volume label

The volume label is an optional attribute. It is a name assigned to a volume for easier recognition. For

example, one volume could be called SYSTEM — a volume with an operati ng system, or PROGRAM —

an application volume, DATA — a data volume, etc., but it does not imply that only the type of data

stated with the label could be stored on such a volume.

In Windows, volume labels are shown in the Explorer disk and folder tree: LABEL1(C:), LABEL2(D:),

LABEL3(E:), etc. LABEL1, LABEL2 and LABEL3 are volume labels. A volume label is shown in all

application dialog boxes for opening and saving files.

If you need to change a volume label:

1. Right-click on the selected volume, and then click Change label.

2. Enter a new label in the Change label window text field.

3. By clicking OK in the Change label window, you'll add the pending operation of changing the

volume label .

If when setting a new volume label you use characters that are unsupported by the currently installed

operating system, you will get the appropriate warning and the OK button will be disabled. You will have to

use only supported characters to proceed with changing the volume label.

(To finish the added operation you will have to commi t (p. 266) it. Exiting the program without

committing the pending operations will effectively cancel them.)

The new label will be graphically represented in the Disk Management view of the console

immediately.

Format volume

You might want to format a volume if you want to change its file system:

 to save additional space which is being lost due to the cluster size on the FAT16 or FAT32 file

systems

 as a quick and more or less reliable way of destroying data, residing in this volume

If you want to format a volume:

1. Select a volume to format.

2. Right-click on the selected volume, and then click Format in the context menu.

You wil l be forwarde d to the Format Volume window, where you wi ll be able to set the new file

system options. You can choose one of the Windows file systems: FAT16 (disabled, if the Volume

Size is more than 2 GB), FAT32 (disabled, if the Volume Size is more than 2 TB) or NTFS.

In the text window you will be able to enter the volume label, if necessary: by default this

window is empty.

In setting the cluster size you can choose between any number in the preset amount for

each file system. Note, the program suggests the cluster size best suited to the volume with

the chosen file system.

3. If you click OK to proceed with the Format Volume operation, you'll add a pending operation of

formatting a volume.

(To finish the added operation you will have to commi t (p. 266) it. Exiting the program without

committing the pending operations will effectively cancel them.)

The new volume structure will be graphically represented in the Disk management view.
