The results of the pending operation are immediately displayed as if the operation had been

performed.

To perform the pending operation you will have to commit it (p. 20). Exiting the program without

committing the pending operations will effectively cancel them.

5.9 Changing a volume label

The volume label is a short name that you can assign to a volume to better differentiate it from other

volumes.

In Acronis Disk Director, the volume label is shown in the list of volumes and is followed by the drive

letter (if present)—for example: System (C:)

Unlike the volume’s drive letter—which may be different in different Windows operating systems

installed on the machine—the volume label remains the same even after the hard disk drive with the

volume has been moved to another machine.

The maximum length of a volume label depends on the volume’s file system. For example, it is 32

characters for the NTFS file system, 11 characters for the FAT16 and FAT32 file systems, and 16

characters for the ext2 and ext3 file systems.

To change a volume label

1. Right-click the volume whose label you want to change, and then click Change label.

2. In New label, type the new volume label.

Note: Some file systems—for example, FAT16 and FAT32 (see below)—do not allow certain characters in

the volume label. The OK button will remain disabled as long as the label you typed contains such

characters.

3. Click OK to add the pending volume label changing operation.

The results of the pending operation are immediately displayed as if the operation had been

performed.

To perform the pending operation you will have to commit it (p. 20). Exiting the program without

committing the pending operations will effectively cancel them.

Label characters not allowed in FAT16 and FAT32

The FAT16 and FAT32 file systems do not allow the following characters in the volume label:

backslash (\), slash (/), colon (:), asterisk (*), question mark (?), quotation mark ("), less than sign (<),

greater than sign (>), and pipe (|).

Volumes whose labels cannot be changed

You cannot assign a volume label to a volume whose file system is shown as Unsupported,

Not formatted, or Linux swap.

If an Acronis backup product, such as Acronis True Image Home, is installed on your machine, you

may have a volume known as Acronis Secure Zone (ASZ). The volume label of this volume cannot be

changed.
