I am not happy with the default drive labels that Windows 2000 assigns to the removable CD-ROM type drives.
I scripted DrvLabel.bat, to change them on my client computers, using Workstation.bat.
The syntax for using DrvLabel.bat is:
DrvLabel DriveLetter "Label Text"
where DriveLetter is the drive letter of the CD type drive, without the colon (:), and "Label Text" is the text you want displayed in My Computer.
Example:
To set the D drive label to DO NOT USE, type:
DrvLabel D "DO NOT USE"
DrvLabel.bat contains:
@echo off
setlocal
If \{%2\}==\{\} goto syntax
set drive=%1
set drvlabel=%2
set drvlabel=%drvlabel:"=%
set work=%drive%#
if "%work:~1,1%" NEQ "#" goto syntax
@echo REGEDIT4>%TEMP%\%drive%.reg
@echo \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints\%drive%\DefaultLabel\]>>%TEMP%\%drive%.reg
@echo @="%drvlabel%">>%TEMP%\%drive%.reg
regedit /s %TEMP%\%drive%.reg
del /q %TEMP%\%drive%.reg
endlocal
goto :EOF
:syntax
@echo Syntax: DrvLabel DriveLetter "Label Text"
endlocal
