Guide to Checking the File Path of Mounted ISO Files in Windows 11

Step 1: Locate Your Mounted ISO Using the Search Box

If you remember the name of your mounted ISO file, you can easily find its path using Windows Search. Click on the Search box, enter the name of your ISO file, and select it from the results. Then, choose the Open file location option to navigate directly to the file’s location, as shown in the accompanying illustration. Additionally, hovering over the file name in the search results will pop up the complete path of the ISO file.

Pro Tip: Use the Win + E keys to quickly access File Explorer and search from there.

Step 2: Determine ISO Path with Get-Volume Command

You can leverage the Get-Volume command via Windows Terminal to discover the file path of your mounted ISO. Open Windows Terminal and execute the following command in the Command Prompt profile:

PowerShell "Get-Volume H | Get-DiskImage | Select-Object ImagePath"

Make sure to replace H with the actual drive letter where your ISO is mounted. The command will display the image path and file name shortly after execution.

Pro Tip: Use the same command in the PowerShell profile to confirm the ISO path:

Get-Volume I | Get-DiskImage | Select-Object ImagePath

Step 3: Retrieve Paths of All Mounted ISOs

To view all mounted ISO images simultaneously, execute the following command in Windows Terminal with the Command Prompt profile:

PowerShell "Get-Volume |%{$d=$_. DriveLetter;$_ |Get-DiskImage |select @{Name='DriveLetter';Expression={$d}}, ImagePath}"

This will generate a list displaying the drive letters alongside their respective ISO paths. For PowerShell, you would use:

Get-Volume |%{$d=$_. DriveLetter;$_ |Get-DiskImage |select @{Name='DriveLetter';Expression={$d}}, ImagePath}

Step 4: Find Your Mounted ISO Path via Get-DiskImage Command

The Get-DiskImage command is specifically designed to obtain the file path of mounted ISOs. In the Command Prompt, the command looks like this:

PowerShell "Get-DiskImage -DevicePath \\.\K: | Select-Object ImagePath"

Remember to substitute K with the correct drive letter of your mounted ISO. For the PowerShell profile, use:

Get-DiskImage -DevicePath \\.\H: | Select-Object ImagePath

Step 5: Access All Mounted ISO Paths with DISKPART

The DISKPART command provides a comprehensive list of all virtual drives, allowing you to see the file paths of ISO files. Access the Command Prompt or PowerShell as an administrator and run:

diskpart

Then, execute:

list vdisk

This lists all virtual drives, showing key information, including file paths of mounted ISO images.
