Change Volume name

Hi friends,

is there a way to change the volume name of a drive ?

Getting the volume name is easy by use of
DriveName is string = fDriveInfo("X:", fdVolumeName)

But how to write a new volume name back to disk?

Kind regards,
Guenter

P.S. Of course FORMAT /V:MYVOLNAME /Q /U would format the disk volume and set the new volume name. Bad: it's interactive, it's DOS, all data of disk is lost ..

Hi,

there is a Console command LABEL - exists / works in Vista*64 too - that changes the Volume name ! Correctly: the 'volume label' - it's of 11 characters maximum.

IF NOT ExeRun("LABEL "+DriveLetter+":"+NewVolumeName) THEN
     Error(ErrorInfo(errFullDetails))
END

Kind regards,
Guenter
