I have an external hard drive that I connect often to my computer. At some point it was assigned letter G: and based on that my other software works.

Nowadays, suddenly it gets letter F:

Is there any way I can use a batch script to change the letter from F: to G:. I don't mind running the batch script manually?

If so, what is the code I should use and will it need administrative permissions?

There are several methods:

  • mountvol – use it once to delete an existing letter, then again to assign a new one;

  • diskpart – interactive;

  • diskmgmt.msc aka Disk Management – a graphical tool.

Whichever you choose, assigning once should be enough, the assignment will be remembered afterwards.
