    Can't access to EFI Partition although it be mounted!


    Few days ago, I can mount and access efi partition with explorer++ and disk genius. But now I can't access it although it be mounted. It shows the message as I don't mount the disk: "You don't currently have permission to access disk folder". How can I fix it to access throw eplorer++ or another software like before? Thanks alot!

    :)

    Can the EFI partition be briefly and safely mounted?

    Can the EFI partition be briefly and safely mounted? Am I correct that mountvol p: /s will mount the EFI partition to drive letter p? Does mounting the EFI partition create a security issue for the pc?

    Can the EFI partition be briefly and safely mounted?

    -> Yes, if your BIOS supports it.

    Am I correct that mountvol p: /s will mount the EFI partition to drive letter p?

    -> Yes, but I do not know what the /s switch should do.

    Does mounting the EFI partition create a security issue for the pc?

    -> No

    Can't access to EFI Partition although it be mounted!

    Move EFI partition

    its to enable win 10 to update to its anniversary edition.. it cant do this due to lack of C drive space i have had a quick try with the trial version of easus.. it didnt seem to be able to do what i want..

    i am assuming i cant just delete the efi partition but maybe i could.. as yet i havnt even figured out how to get into the bios of the thing.. maybe that should be my next step.. *Smile Can't access to EFI Partition although it be mounted! :)

    diskpart could probably do it but figuring out how (it aint that user friendly) might be difficult without step by step instructions..
