Introduction:

Diskpart is windows inbuilt program utility, it lets us do many things like making any partition active, changing/assigning drive letter, creating MBR (master boot recorder), extend any volume,create a volume or partition,making any disk online etc.but here i m only telling you about how to hide your drive and also changing drive letter.

Steps:

(1) First press " win+r " or go to run and type diskpart here and hit enter.

(2) Now type "list volume " to see volume available in here and " list disk" to see disk available in here(see the figure).


(3) Now to hide lets suppose my drive d first type "select volume 2" [for selecting my d drive for processing].

(4) Since we have selected my drive d so now type "remove letter d" for hiding it.
