Does anyone know the registry hacks or at least we in the
registry you can hide disk drives from my computer?

A grp policy was set to hide and when the GP was disabled
the drives did not come back. Tried several times to just
adjust the GP and then apply it again, then turn it off -
nothing works w/this one computer. Can go to start, run
and type C: to get to my c drive. Looks like it tattoed
the registry and the only way to fix is to manually edit
it.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Bill
 
You should enable the policy but instead of hiding the drives tell the
policy to show all (option None). Reapply policies to your workstation and
thereafter remove the policy. This is the best way to do so.

Locally look for the NODRIVES entry (reg_dword) located in



HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explore
