Here’s a video demonstrating everything you can do with the new Settings Disk Management tool: Disk Management in Settings format drive option If you’re dealing with an external drive, the properties page will also include options to delete and format the partition, and you can bring the drive online or offline.
You can add a path to the volume, and you can even enable BitLocker on the drive. You can resize the partition with the Change size button. You can select each drive and clicking the Properties button will access another page where you can change the label or drive letter. While in the main page, if you expand the drive, you’ll see the list of partitions with various information (for example, file system, partition type, status, etc.). There’s also an Advanced Disk Properties option that opens the properties of the drive with Control Panel.
In addition, you’ll see the current status and the partition style (for example, GUID Partition Table “GPT”). You can select the drive and clicking the Properties button will give you additional information like name, identification, model, media, capacity, and type. Inside the page, the tool lists all the drives connected to the computer with basic information, such as the disk number, media (SSD or HDD), and whether if the drive is online or offline. The new feature appears under Settings > System > Storage and clicking the Manage Disks and Volumes option. It’s similar to the legacy console, and it allows you to view all the drives connected to the computer, and you can create, resize, format, and change letters for partitions.

The new Disk Management tool is officially available since Windows 10 build 20197, but the integration first appeared in build 20175. It also features better integration with features like Storage Spaces and the Storage breakdown page. The new experience was built from the ground up with modern improvements and accessibility in mind. Although the operating system has included a tool to manage disks and volumes for a long time, it’s a console that is still part of Control Panel. Windows 10 introduces a new Disk Management tool built into the Settings app.
