Automount is enabled by default in Windows. When enabled, Windows automatically mounts the file system for a new volume (disk or drive) when it is added (connected) to the system, and then assigns a drive letter to the volume. Disk corruption can occur if data is changed on the drive while sanpshots deltas are being downloaded. To prevent this disable automounting of drives.

  1. Open CMD using 'Run as Administrator'.

  2. Type diskpart into the elevated command prompt, and press Enter. (see screenshot below)

  3. Type automount disable into the elevated command prompt, and press Enter.

After the snapshots have been downloaded assing drive letters to each of the volume.
