Whenever I attempted to do anything with disk management, I get the following error message, saying,
Virtual Disk Manager
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it
has no enable devices associated with it.
How can I solve this? Any idea?
Hi,
The issue here is that you have the Disk defragmenter service Disabled on your system. The Virtual Drive manager is somehow related to the Defragmenter service and hence it shows the error. So just Enabled the Defragmenter service (If not required then you can enable it temporarily) and that should do it for you.
Thanks.

The full error reads “The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it”. You may receive this error when the disk defragmenter service is disabled. If you disabled it intentionally, you have to enable it back to access disk management properly again. To enable it back, click “Start” then right-click “Computer” and select “Manage”.
If this is not accessible to you, click “Start”, “Control Panel”, “Administrative Tools”, then double-click “Services”. In “Services” screen, scroll down and locate the “Disk Defragmenter” service. Double-click it to open the properties. In the “Properties” window, in “General” tab, set “Startup type” to “Manual” then click “OK”.
