| Senior Member | Hide from all................. Want to keep something , anything it cud b........ away frm anyone using ur computer.. Obviously , hide folder is ov no good , coz evn the most stupid cmputer user 2day knowz dat how it sucks ..... Here iz a far more better way......... Keep all ur stuff in a hard disk partition which is hidden from anybody else. Howzz dat ......... if ya feel intersted den read further , othrwise _______ . Hmmm , so now da action.... 1.Use any existin partition or make a new one wid partition magic or anythin else for dat matter. 2.Now get ready to get ur handz dirty ......... its a very small and easy registry edit.....(plz back up ur registry first..) 3.Go to da key....... HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer In ds key , c there iz if a dword(Reg_dword) or binary(Reg_binary) value named "NoDrives" (widout quotes offcourse!") If it iz deir , den ok , othrwise make a new one. Now , give the appropriate value to hide a drive ya wish to.! Table ov values is as given here for some drives. Drive Letter----------------- Binary Value----------------Dword Value A ----------------------------- 01000000 ----------------- 00000001 B ----------------------------- 02000000 ----------------- 00000002 C ----------------------------- 04000000 ----------------- 00000004 D ----------------------------- 08000000 ----------------- 00000008 E ----------------------------- 10000000 ----------------- 00000010 F ----------------------------- 20000000 ----------------- 00000020 G ----------------------------- 40000000 ----------------- 00000040 H ----------------------------- 80000000 ----------------- 00000080 I ------------------------------ 00010000 ----------------- 00000100 J ------------------------------ 00020000 ----------------- 00000200 Use either the dword value or the binary value. To hide more than one drive , just sum up the values for each drive and use that sum as the value for "NoDrives" key. Alert: These values are in hexadecimal. So, sum them up in hexadecimal system only . After editing registry , youll hav 2 reboot da system to c da effect. If ya want to c da drive again , den go 2 dat same key , n delete da value. So, enjoy with ur stuff outta reach ov anyone else............. If ya mess up wid ur registry or end up messing ur system itself , den m not to blame ..........
