# humount(1)

remove an HFS volume from the list of known volumes

## NAME

humount - remove an HFS volume from the list of known volumes

## SYNOPSIS

humount \[*volume-name-or-path*\]

## DESCRIPTION

**humount** is used to forget about an HFS volume previously mounted with **hmount**. Either the volume's name or the UNIX path to the volume may be used to specify the volume. If no name or path is given, the current volume is assumed.

## NOTES

It is not strictly necessary to use this command. It does not affect any physical volumes; it only updates the file named *.hcwd* in the user's home directory used to keep track of the currently known HFS volumes.

## SEE ALSO

[hfsutils(1)](/hfsutils/1.md), [hmount(1)](/hmount/1.md)

## FILES
