SimonD Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I have an issue using the Disk Benchmark feature. It's the same on the latest 7.x version and also on the latest 6.x version. I activated "Write tests" under options and tried to use the "Linear Write" benchmark but it did not work. After clicking "Start" button I was asked three times if I want to continue destroying all data. I click yes and then the error "cannot open drive" occurs: I checked with Process Explorer and saw a sharing violation. Read tests are working but all write tests are failing with this behavior: Is this a bug and if not how can I fix it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We suspect this could be due to a security measure dictated by either Windows Defender or an installed 3rd party security software. Or, maybe it can be because your system uses virtualization.

SimonD Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 Thanks for your fast answer. I added the drive to Windows Defender whitelist and also deactivated all Defender features but it still did not work. I don't use 3rd party security software. Regarding virtualization I have to check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonD Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 I don't have any virtualization tools installed. Hyper-V is also not active. I thought Macrium Reflect could cause the problem and removed it. Unfortunately it's still not working. Is there any possibility how to troubleshoot this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
