Removing a mount point for a volume

Mount point can be unmounted using either of the following methods:

• Unmounting the drive using Windows PowerShell:

  1. Open Windows PowerShell command.

  2. Run the following cmdlet:

     Remove-PartitionAccessPath -DriveLetter [x] -AccessPath [y]

     x—is the drive letter of the mounted volume.

     y—is the path of the access path folder.

     Example:

     Remove-PartitionAccessPath -DriveLetter F -AccessPath E:\MountPointF

• Unmounting the drive using DiskPart command:

  1. Open Command Prompt and run as Administrator.

  2. Run the following command:

     diskpart

  3. View the list of all available volumes, using the following command:

     list volume

  4. To select the drive on which you want to unmount the volume, use the following command:

     select volume DRIVE-LETTER

  5. Unmount the drive, using the following command:

     remove mount ACCESS-PATH

     Example:

     remove mount E:\MountPointF

• Unmounting the drive using Mountvol command:

  1. Open Command Prompt and run as Administrator.

  2. To list a brief help text, list of volumes, mount points, and GUIDs on your system, use the following command:

     C:\> mountvol

  3. Unmount a mount point having access path, using the following command:

     mountvol ACCESS-PATH /d

     /d—removes the volume mount point from the specified directory.

     Example:

     C:\> mountvol E:\MountPointF /d
