By following these steps we can always assign the same letter to an external drive that we connect to Windows 10

It's time to talk about customization in our equipment, an ability to adapt the operating system on duty to our tastes, needs and even customs that makes us perform more and better in our day to day. And for this, there is nothing better than taking into account some functions that can be useful to us.

And it is that who has not happened to that when connecting a flash drive or an external hard drive simultaneously, they have found that when disconnecting it they do not know what each one is them.It is something that can happen and a situation that favors the fact that it is the system that assigns the letters to the devices

"

With this letter the system determines the destination unit in order to work with it In our steps we will copy D files or move information to H It is the system that assigns some letters that can vary each time and how depending on the case, it can become annoying, here we are going to see how it can be prevented."

And if we always work with an external drive in Windows 10, the system allows us to always have this drive appear on the screen with the same letterso that it will be much easier for us to locate it and distinguish it from other devices that we may eventually have connected. And this is something that we can solve in a few steps.

"

The first step is to access Administrative Tools and to do this the fastest way is to write it in the search box at the bottom left of the screen."

"

Once inside and among all the options we select Device Manager"

"

A new window opens and we must enter the Storage section"

"

Once inside the Storage select Disk Manager."

"

We are in Disk Manager and now we mark the unit with which we want to work and we _click_ on Change drive letter and paths ."

"

A new window opens and we click on Remove to eliminate in this way the letter that has Associate."

"

Once eliminated, we _click_ on Add and type the letter with which we want to identify our unit. "

"

We have changed the letter and all we have to do is click on Accept and exit."

With this method the operating system will watch that every time we connect that unit to the computer, it has the same letter, that that we have given you and with which you can operate normally. In this way it will be easier for us to locate the device if we have several connected.
