The volume label of a drive isnt usually an important piece of information, but it can be when executing certain commands from the Command Prompt.

For example, the format command requires that you enter the volume label of a drive youre formatting, assuming it has one.

If you dont know the volume label, you cant complete the task.

The volume serial number is less important but could be a valuable piece of information in some specific circumstances.

Follow these quick and easy steps to find the volume label or volume serial number from the Command Prompt.

In Windows 10 and Windows 8, you can find Command Prompt by right-clicking the Start button.

In older versions of Windows, either search the Start menu for cmd or find Command Prompt in the Accessories folder of the Start menu.

At the prompt, execute the vol command as shown below, and then press Enter.

Immediately below the prompt, you should see two lines similar to the following.

As you can see, the volume label for the C drive is Windows and the volume serial number is C1F3-A79E.

Volume labels are optional and your drive happens to not have one.

Now that youve found the volume label or volume serial number, you can close Command Prompt if youre finished or you can continue executing additional commands.

Using the Command Prompt is the fastest way to find this information but there are other methods, too.

Execute the WINE keyboard shortcut to open the list of hard drives (if youre using Windows 10, also choose This PC from the left).

Right-click one (or tap-and-hold) and choose Properties to see it there, too, and to change the drives volume label.

Another is to use a free system information tool like the free Speccy program.

With that program, in particular, find the Storage section and pick the hard drive you want the information for.

Both the serial number and specific volume serial numbers are shown for each drive.
