Retrieves the names of the logical drives on this computer.
public:
static cli::array <System::String ^> ^ GetLogicalDrives();public static string[] GetLogicalDrives ();static member GetLogicalDrives : unit -> string[]Public Shared Function GetLogicalDrives () As String()Returns
String[]
An array of strings representing the logical drive names.
Exceptions
An I/O error occurred (for example, a disk error).
The caller does not have the required permission.
Examples
The following example uses the GetLogicalDrives method to assign the name of each drive on the calling computer to an array of strings. Each member of this string array is then printed to the console. The example is configured to catch all errors common to this method.

Remarks
On Windows, GetLogicalDrives returns the names of all accessible drives on a particular machine, including any optical drives or removable media devices, in the form "<drive letter>:\" (for example, "C:\"). On Unix, it returns the paths of all filesystem mount points mounted on a particular machine (for example, "/home/user", "/media/usb").
