Open PenDZ-Alter opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

I Tried to unmount using diskpart, but there's no drive in volume detected with my device using btrfs filesystem If there's no feature of this. Can you adding this feature? which is so important to anyone also

Is there anything to remove letter drive with using btrfs? Actually, i tried to remove letter drive, but the drive with using btrfs can't detected the letter drive in diskpart

I would like this functionality too. Please consider adding it. I have a dual boot windows and linux setup, and want to have the linux root drive hidden from windows. I have a shared drive between the 2 that is formatted as btrfs. Hence why I need to use winbtrfs. Again, it would be great if there was some way to remove a drive letter form winbtrfs.

You can always set the Ignore flag in the Registry - have a look at the README.

Thanks. after looking at "Mount options" under the readme, and creating a "Ignore" dword under the registry, the mount is now gone. Perfect. Thanks

However, I too would like some way for this to work with disk management, as well as diskpart. Is there a way that this can be done?
