Converting the FileSystemObject's VolumeName Property

  • Article

Definition: Sets or returns the volume label of a drive.

VolumeName

Retrieve an object reference to the .NET Framework object DriveInfo for the drive you want to work with. You can then use the DriveInfo VolumeLabel property to retrieve the volume label of the drive.

$d = New-Object -typename System.IO.DriveInfo -argumentlist "C:"
$d.VolumeLabel

You can set the volume label with the same property:

$d.VolumeLabel = "My Data Drive"
