Getting a drive detected in THIS PC

In my x32Win10ProV22H2, I have SSDs that are connected via SATA ports, but whose power can be switched on (and off) as required. The BIOS has been set to ACHI, so all connected drives should be 'hot swapable'. Yet from time to time, newly connected (i.e. newly powered) drives, do not get detected unless I reboot the PC. I'm looking for a tweak that will force detection without rebooting. I put this question to another forum and one of the responses, provided a batch file to trigger 'rescanning'. The concept is EXACTLY what I am after, but alas the code does not achieve the desired result - it does launch the Command Prompt (probably at elevated level), and Diskpart is employed, I think. I'm wondering if the batch file can be improved or some other work-around created, to avoid the need to reboot so as to get a drive detected.

Not my field but I think you need to publish the code of this batch file to get any effective assistance.

Chris Cosgrove - I will do as you suggest; I was not really expecting an improvement in the code, but instead to intimate the kind of solution I'm hoping for.  

@echo off
DISKPART /s C:\script.txt

where script.txt says

rescan

Bleepibn madman - 'Some drives...' This malfunction only occurs sometimes, so the capability is there most of the time.

Have you tried "pnputil /scan-devices"?

Garlin - I have not tried "pnputil /scan-devices" because I did not see your post till today (23/9/23), and I do not know about that option. It looks to me like something one could run from an elevated DOS prompt. I will try that next time a drive that should be detected, is not. Thank you.
