    Changing drive letter


    Hello
    I "reorganized" my Windows 7-64 bits PC (added some new disks, reorgabizing directories ...)
    I renamed some of the disks so they are clear for me
    But there is one disk I cannot change
    I want to rename F: to Z:

    Inside the Drive management Console, i can
    - access disk F:
    - select Z: as the new name letter

    But whn i click to start the renaming i have an error message that says "Invalid parameter" or "Incorrect parameter" (I use a french version of Windows so the exact message is "paramètre incorrect"

    Any idea where this could come from ? It seems all the disks are correctly defined and activated

    Thanks for your help Have a good day

    Post a maximized/resized screen print of Disk Management so all info is displayed using these instructions:
    Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image

    One possibility, if you have a Page File on F that might be why you can't change the drive letter.
