"Rescan Disks" at the Command Line
In Disk Management under the Computer Management tool, there is an action
called "Rescan Disks". Is there a command in the Command Line that can do the exact same thing? |

"Rescan Disks" at the Command Line
I realize this is an old topic, but in the hopes that this helps someone who ends up here from a search while looking for an answer to this problem, here are another couple of simple ways to achieve this in Vista. Neither of these require the use of an external text file. On the good old fashoned command prompt: *echo rescan | diskpart* From a PowerShell prompt: *"rescan" | diskpart* Hope this helps! -- Topher2798 |
