使用PowerShell创建虚拟驱动器

Question

I'm trying to create a D: drive in Windows, which points to some local directory (eg C:\\DDrive) using PowerShell.

This code runs fine:

New-PSDrive -Name D -Root "C:\D_Drive\" -PSProvider "FileSystem"

But in the Windows Explorer no D:-drive is visible.

How does one use that command correctly? Also: the drive should be permanent, so I tried adding a "-Persist" parameter. But that leads to an error ("unknown parameter "-Persist"...").

Answer 1

The New-PSDrive command only creates a mapping that is visible in PowerShell. It's not shown in explorer at all.

Here are two other questions that ask the same thing:

Answer 2

Just run:

subst D: "C:\D_Drive\"

in non-elevated PS session (don't run as Administrator).
