Managing disk quotas from the command line

In addition to using My Computer to manage disk quotas (right-click a volume, click Properties, and then click the Quota tab), you can use the fsutil command-line utility to manage disks and volumes.

Important

  • Fsutil is an advanced tool that is only intended to be used by advanced users who have a thorough understanding of Windows.

You can use:

  • Fsutil: quota to create and modify disk quotas for a specific user, query disk quotas for a specific volume, search the system log for any quota violations, or to perform these tasks using scripts.

  • Fsutil: behavior to change how often quota events are written to the system log.
