How to Automount VHD on windows 10

attach_vhd_at_startup_windows_10.md

So here's a pretty neat thing, I use VHD's to organize the space on my computer. You can too!

• Click Start

• Type in the search bar "Disk par" =>

• Click first result =>

• In the program, click "Action" =>

• Under action menu, click Create VHD =>

• Make a new folder in your C: drive called VHD =>

• now in "C:\VHD", add disk1.vhd

• now finish setup =>

• attach vhd

• Now, in The same folder, create a new file "attach_vhd.txt"

• in that file, place the following

select vdisk file="C:\VHD\coding.vhd"
attach vdisk
exit

• save it

• run the following command in PowerShell

schtasks /create /tn "automountvhd" /tr "diskpart.exe /s 'c:\VHD\attach_vhd.txt'" /sc ONLOGON /ru SYSTEM

and you're done

if prefer to use PowerShell instead of diskpart can use this command

Mount-DiskImage "D:\VHD\MyDrive.vhdx"

Mount-DiskImage unfortunately doesn't work if Hyper-V is not enabled
