steffenmand Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Hi, Today i created a drive and forgot to change the label. So i detached and reattached with a new label - however after the reattach the old name stuck on the drive, but the new one shows in the stablebit ui Might be a bug or just bad luck :-D KiaraEvirm and Ginoliggime 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Where are you changing the label specifically? In Windows, or? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 steffenmand Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 on a windows 10 machine. changed the name while attaching to be different than the one it was made with originally version 444 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 steffenmand Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 of course in the stablebit UI on .444 at a windows machine. label in explorer shows the old name while stablebit says the name i desired. seems as some info didnt get saved - minor thing but labels are great with several drives google drive provider 1. create drive with google drive, keep original name 2. detach the drive 3.reattach the drive and change drive name 4. drive in windows says the old label while stablebit ui says the new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Okay, I'm pretty sure this is "by design". Specifically, the volume label on the drive is created based on the original disk name. Since this is a file system setting, specifically, it's not changed when the local name in StableBit CloudDrive is changed. Confusing yes, but I've flagged it for Alex, just in case.

0 steffenmand Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 I can just rename the drives myself, however just seemed weird, as a name change makes no difference then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Yup, seems kind of weird. However, there are cases where this makes sense. For instance, if you have multiple volumes/partitions on the single disk. Changing the label doesn't make sense in this case. However, if it's the only partition/volume, then it would make sense to update it. I've included the suggestion. https://stablebit.com/Admin/IssueAnalysis/24913 steffenmand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
