ANTS Memory Profiler 8

No Disk

When profiling an application, ANTS Memory Profiler may show an error message similar to:

MyApplication - No Disk
There is no disk in the drive.Please insert a disk into drive
\Device\Harddisk1\DR2

Cause

This can happen when the source code location matches a removable drive that has been disconnected. It does not matter if the software was built on a completely different computer - if the drive letter is the same as a disconnected removable drive on the computer used for profiling, this error will occur.

How to fix

There are a few possible ways to fix this:

  • Reconnect the removable drive
  • Disconnect the removable device that normally mounts the drive
  • Change the drive letter using Windows Computer Management Console (Disk Management)
  • Delete the PDB files applicable to the code you are profiling

If you continue to experience problems, please contact Redgate Support.
