    How do I find the path to the ISO file of a mounted virtual DVD.


    "I am not sure if this anwers your question but in every browser you use whether it's Firefox, Chrome, IE, Opera etc... there's an option to set the default download folder."

    I'm fairly certain that, what happened was, he checked or defaulted to Open vs Save when the download started and he was asked what to do with the file. This is why it mounted as Drive L w/o any User interaction.

    Not sure why this doesn't work for me on 10 Pro - it looks like it should. Get-Volume works but doesn't seem to work with Get-DiskImage.

    Get-DiskImage on its own works though - it shows you the path of the ISO (as long as you put in the correct virtual disk number (\\.\CDROM0 or whatever).

    There is also GetVirtualDiskPhysicalPath function (Windows) but it is a bit inconvenient...

    Yes that's what happened - I mention it in post #7 (How do I find the path to the ISO file of a mounted virtual DVD. - Windows 10 Forums) and it ends up in a temporary location down a long, hidden, convoluted path.

    But now, Thanks to @Antrill for guiding the way, and to @Ix07 for actually giving me the solution and the syntax needed (with a little manipulation) :

    Get-Diskimage -devicepath \\.\L:

    where L: is the drive letter of the mounted image as in:

    Code: PS I:\WINDOWS\system32> get-diskimage -devicepath \\.\n: Attached : True BlockSize : 2097152 DevicePath : \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE4 FileSize : 8909041152 ImagePath : K:\IE11 - Win7.vhd LogicalSectorSize : 512 Number : 4 Size : 136365211648 StorageType : 2 PSComputerName : PS I:\WINDOWS\system32> get-diskimage -devicepath \\.\p: Attached : True BlockSize : 0 DevicePath : \\.\CDROM1 FileSize : 3904124928 ImagePath : D:\9600.16384.130821-1623_x64fre_Client_EN-GB-IRM_CCSA_DV5\9600.16384.130821-1623_x64fre_Client_EN- GB-IRM_CCSA_DV5.ISO LogicalSectorSize : 2048 Number : 1 Size : 3904124928 StorageType : 1 PSComputerName :[/quote] I am now a happy bunny *Smile

    Now all I need to do is create a little script like WhereRU(DriveLetter) that takes the letter of the mounted drive in question and outputs IMHere(ImagePath)
