PowerTip: Identify Letter of Mounted ISO or VHD File with PowerShell

Doctor Scripto

Summary: Use Windows PowerShell to identify the letter of a mounted ISO or VHD file in Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows 8.1.

Hey, Scripting Guy! Question I know I can mount ISOs and VHD files in Windows 8.1, but is there a way to programmatically know what
          the drive letter is without checking the GUI and playing with DiskPart?

Hey, Scripting Guy! Answer Pipe the output of Get-DiskImage to Get-Volume or Get-Disk and Get-Partition:

For an ISO file:

GET-DISKIMAGE filename.iso | GET-VOLUME

For a VHD file:

GET-DISKIMAGE filename.vhd | GET-DISK | GET-PARTITION
