FsLogix User profile drive is not showing under my Computer

Question

I deployed FSLogix user profiler container on my VDI computer recently and all looks good, the user profiler is created on the share drive and attached as a drive in disk management when I login the VDI, and the user profiler is created on local C drive as well, but if I sign out the VDI, the local user profiler will be auto removed by the system, till next login, it will be created again, it looks correct.
If I go to disk management, I can add a drive letter and it will be displayed as a drive in my computer, but when I log off and login again, the drive missing again.
I checked the registry key for error code and reason, both show 0, that means the Fslogix user profile is working correctly. I am just wondering if this is correct behavior that the user profile drive is not showing in my computer by default while login?
I thought the correct behavior is the user profile drive displayed in my computer every time when I login to the VDI and detached when I log off, correct me if am wrong.

Thanks

Hello @ WangShermaine-9311

If I go to disk management, I can add a drive letter and it will be displayed as a drive in my computer, but when I log off and login again, the drive missing again.

Yes, this is the default behavior.
Attached virtual hard disks will always be detached when computer will be shut down (or restarted), and need to be re-attached after every boot.

You could create a task to permanently attach a VHD, see How to open, unmount, or permanently attach a VHD file in Windows 10 - Digital Citizen

or you could use FSLogix Disk Management Utility :
