How to Hide the drives(c:,d:,e:,a:...etc)

This will Hide Drive from Start Menu.




1. Go to Run from Start menu.
2. Type regedit and press enter.
Then navigate to

-> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Now in the right pane create a new DWORD item and name it NoDrives(case sensitive). Now modify it's value and set it to 3FFFFFF (Hexadecimal) .Now restart your computer. So, now when you click on My Computer, no drives will be shown(all gone...). To enable display of drives in My Computer, simply delete this DWORD item that you created.Again restart your computer.You can now see all the drives again.

4 for drive C.
8 for drive D. & so on in d sequence.

if u wanna remove drive A & B say
