can't assign letter to partition
Problem:
Example 1.
Guys, I have a serious problem ... I have 4 primary partitions: 1.system reserved 2.C, 3.D 4.E.
First three partitions are shown by file manager and last one is only
shown in disk management ... When I tried to assign a drive letter it
gives error message" The operation failed to complete because the Disk
Management console view is not up-to-date. Refresh the view by using the
refresh task. If the problem persists close the disk Management
console, then restart Disk Management or restart the computer ". I did
do refresh and restart but nothing worked. It saves a lot of important
data, so I don't want to lose it. Help!
Example 2.
In Windows 7, I created a new simple volume in Disk Management on a WD hard disk, but suddenly my computer suffered a power loss within a few minutes of volume creation. As a result, the newly created volume is inaccessible due to having no drive letter and file system. So I planed to assign it a letter, but got the "The operation failed to complete because the Disk Management console view is not up-to-date…" error. How can I fix this error?
Solution:
Go Device Manager (Win Key + R then "devmgmt.msc")
Find Hard Drive Name in "Disk Drives"
Right click then Uninstall it
Unplug and reconnect it to install drive again
it work for me ;)
