VDS_E_VOLUME_NOT_MOUNTED
VDS_E_VOLUME_NOT_MOUNTED means Windows has a volume object but no file system is mounted for it. The volume may be unformatted, intentionally hidden, offline, encrypted, or missing an access path.
What to check
- Inspect the volume file system, health status, and mount points.
- Do not format a volume merely because it has no drive letter; first establish whether it is a recovery, system, or data partition.
- For encrypted data volumes, check the BitLocker state before assuming that the file system is absent.
Virtual Disk Service is a legacy COM API. On Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 and later, inspect and manage supported storage through the Storage Management API and the Storage PowerShell cmdlets.
