Specifically, "diskpart" is a command line utility that hooks into "VDS", the same way that Disk Management does, and allows a lot of control over the disks.  As well as access to more features than Disk Management normally gives you. 

As for "automount", this setting controls the ... well, automatic mounting of disks on the system.  Enabled is the default, but disabled means that any disk without a mount point is not automatically mounted, and therefore, is not accessible until it's mounted.

Diskpart is accessed via the command prompt

i.e. open a command prompt window

type "diskpart"

then type "/?" and it will list the commands available

automount is one of them

to get exit diskpart type "exit"

Thank you both for your responses!

Okay folks, I believe I have solved my own issue.

Apparently since all of my pool drives have no letters and whatever latest Windows updates may have caused all the drives to dismounted. My many attempts to uninstalled/reinstalled Drivepool could not bring the pool drives back. The way to fix my issue of missing drives is:

- Diskpart

- Enable Automount

- Reboot

All the drives magically came back YAY!

I have the same issue where my drives went missing after a Windows 10 update.

Can you explain what Diskpart and Enable Automount are and how to do both?
