Commit Changes Button Always Highlighted in Disk Administrator

 Last reviewed: July 8, 1996
Article ID: Q151357
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.5 and 3.51
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5 and 3.51

SYMPTOMS

When you make changes to the hard disk with the Disk Administrator, the Commit Changes option on the Partition menu is highlighted. Selecting this option seems to do nothing but the option remains highlighted.

CAUSE

This is caused by creating an extend partition on a volume. After you commit the changes, the Commit Changes option stays highlighted throughout this instance of Disk Administrator. The problem is only cosmetic and will not cause any harm to your disk. You can still make other changes to the hard disks and you can commit them properly.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT versions 3.5 and 3.51. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
