Hide Your Drive To Secure Your Data.. Try it !!!

Note: To use this feature, you will need to be logged into your computer with
administrative rights.

>>> Click Start button and type "regedit" in Run option then press Enter for next.

>>> Here go to the location : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Policies\Explorer

>>> Here in right side panel, right click to create a new DWORD value with name NoDrives (it is case sensitive), then assign number to its value data box.

>>> Now if you want to hide all system drives then modify value data
to 3FFFFFF .

>>> For specific drive use values (For example, for A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
H drives, the values are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 respectively).

>>> In this case we are trying to hide F drive, so we modify the value data
box to 32.

>>> Now close the registry editor and restart your computer after any
changes to go into effect.

>>> But next time, if you want to unhide this drive then simply change
the value data box or delete the DWORD item.

>>> Again close the registry editor and restart your computer after any
changes to go into effect
