Volume operations

Acronis Disk Director Lite includes the following operations that can be performed on volumes:

  • Create Volume – Creates a new volume with the help of the Create Volume Wizard.
  • Delete Volume – Deletes the selected volume.
  • Set Active – Sets the selected volume Active so that the machine will be able to boot with the OS installed there.
  • Change Letter – Changes the selected volume letter
  • Change Label – Changes the selected volume label
  • Format Volume – Formats a volume giving it the necessary file system

The full version of Acronis Disk Director will provide more tools and utilities for working with volumes.

Acronis Disk Director Lite must obtain exclusive access to the target volume. This means no other disk management utilities (like Windows Disk Management utility) can access it at that time. If you receive a message stating that the volume cannot be blocked, close the disk management applications that use this volume and start again. If you can not determine which applications use the volume, close them all.
