Tip for hiding Drives

[Gurpreet Kaur]

Hiding Any Combination of Drives

If you want to stop a drive or any combination of drives appearing in Explorer/My Computer
Hi friends
if you got bored of hiding folders
here is a tip.....hide the entire drive
but you can access that
other users cannt see any drive if you hide all
or any.



Add the Binary Value of 'NoDrives' in the registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer

Give it a value from a combination of the table below to hide
either drive c,d,e,f etc.

A 1 00 00 00
B 2 00 00 00
C 4 00 00 00
D 8 00 00 00
E 16 00 00 00
F 32 00 00 00
G 64 00 00 00
H 128 00 00 00
I 00 1 00 00

after this restart your computer

but do it at your own risk
i shall not take any responsiblity for any harm to your system
maine kiya tha ho gaya tha.

Simple and safe way is to use TweakUI.

@ashu_cool: try tweakui as aadipa said. thats sure to work!

folks, gurpreet has contributed a tip from her side. did every member of this forum know about it? when someone contributes something it shouldn't be discouraged. they won't do it from next time. if some of the folks didn't like the tip then why comment? just shun the topic. correct if someone is wrong but don't give negative comments.
