Description

Read-only collection of all available drives.

Remarks

Removable-media drives need not have media inserted for them to appear in the Drives collection.

The following example illustrates how to get the Drives collection using the Drives property and iterate the collection using the Enumerator object:

function ShowDriveList()
{
  var fso, s, n, e, x;
  fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
  e = new Enumerator(fso.Drives);
  s = "";
  for (; !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext())
  {
    x = e.item();
    s = s + x.DriveLetter;
    s += " - ";
    if (x.DriveType == 3)
      n = x.ShareName;
    else if (x.IsReady)
      n = x.VolumeName;
    else
      n = "[Drive not ready]";
    s +=  n + "<br>";
  }
  return(s);
}
