10.7.3 Set active volume
If you have several primary volumes, you must specify one to be the boot volume. For this, you can
set a volume to become active. A disk can have only one active volume, so if you set a volume as
active, the volume, which was active before, will be automatically unset.
If you need to set a volume active:
1. Select a primary volume on a basic MBR disk to set as active.
2. Right-click on the selected volume, and then click Mark as active in the context menu.
If there is no other active volume in the system, the pending operation of setting active volume
will be added.
Please note, that due to setting the new active volume, the former active volume letter might be changed
and some of the installed programs might stop running.
3. If another active volume is present in the system, you will receive the warning that the previous
active volume will have to be set passive first. By clicking OK in the Warning window, you'll add
the pending operation of setting active volume.
Please note: even if you have the Operating System on the new active volume, in some cases the machine
will not be able to boot from it. You will have to confirm your decision to set the new volume as active.
(To finish the added operation you will have to commit (p. 194) 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
immediately.
10.7.4 Change volume letter
Windows operating systems assign letters (C:, D:, etc) to hard disk volumes at startup. These letters
are used by applications and operating systems to locate files and folders in the volumes.
Connecting an additional disk, as well as creating or deleting a volume on existing disks, might
change your system configuration. As a result, some applications might stop working normally or
user files might not be automatically found and opened. To prevent this, you can manually change
the letters that are automatically assigned to the volumes by the operating system.
If you need to change a letter assigned to a volume by the operating system:
1. Select a volume to change a letter.
2. Right-click on the selected volume, and then click Change letter in the context menu.
3. Select a new letter in the Change Letter window.
4. By clicking OK in the Change Letter window, you'll add a pending operation to volume letter
assignment.
(To finish the added operation you will have to commit (p. 194) 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
immediately.
10.7.5 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 operating system, or PROGRAM
