Notes
- If a previous mount has been canceled, the cmdlet resumes that mount when it is run again. The package must be added to the system before mounting. Otherwise the cmdlet fails. If you do not specify any parameters, the cmdlet mounts all packages on the system.
- This cmdlet is synchronous. It returns when the mount option has completed. To make the cmdlet asynchronous, use the Start-Job cmdlet.
