Visual Subst is a very useful tool that allows you to associate frequently used files with virtual hard drives. It solves 3 major problems with the built-in subst command: Automatically creates virtual disks for quick launch of applications, adds editable partition labels, and restores existing virtual disks after frequent reboots. For Windows users, this utility also provides some additional benefits that will be really helpful. This utility is part of Windows Server 2021 and can be run as a system image.

The Visual Subst software allows you to create, rename, and delete sections on the fly. It organizes and sends files and folders to specified volume groups. You can also change boot images regularly. When it comes to backing up data, it solves the main problems with the built-in “lsd” command and backing up subvolumes in VSS. It allows you to create read-only and hidden partitions.

So, you can see that Visual Subst is a pretty handy utility for Windows users. This software simplifies data backup and management. The best part is that it can be scheduled on a daily or weekly basis to take care of all the tedious tasks like creating, restoring and naming partitions. If you haven’t tried it yet, give it a try and see what it can do for you. I’m sure Visual Subst will solve at least one of the three major problems with the built-in lsd command.
