command linepartitioningwindows
For example, if I'm booted from Windows PE, or remoting into a system using psexec or another command-line based method. I know that diskpart.exe allows you to set the active partition, but I can't find any way of seeing which partition is currently active.
Hopefully there's a simple answer and I'm just missing it …
You can use RegFromApp to capture the changes.
RegFromApp monitors the Registry changes made by the application that you selected, and creates a standard RegEdit registration file (.reg) that contains all the Registry changes made by the application. You can use the generated .reg file to import these changes with RegEdit when it's needed.
A different way would be the create 2 registry snapshost with RegShot 2 (1 before and 1 after the change) and let the Tool compare the snapshots and list the differences.
The for command needs a placeholder so you can pass along variables for use later in the query, we are telling it use the placeholder %A, the reason the code you saw uses %%A is because inside a batch file (which I assume is where you found this) the % has a special meaning, so you must do it twice %% so it gets turned in to a single % to be passed to the for command
To actually break apart what the command is doing, there is two parts to the command:
for /D %%A in (*) do .....
What this part says is for every folder in the current folder execute the following command replacing %%A with the name of the currently processing folder.
..... "\7za.exe" u -t7z -m9=LZMA2 "%%A.7z" "%%A"
What this part says is execute the command "\7za.exe" u -t7z -m9=LZMA2 "%%A.7z" "%%A" and replace the two %%A's with the current record we are processing.

Only way I know how to do this is close to what @Maximus put but do the following:
The output will indicate
For example:
You have to go through each volume to find which ones are Active and which ones are not. You can use Diskpart's
list volumecommand to show all volumes and find the one you want to check first.
