Disabling Display of Drives in My Computer

To disable the display of local or networked drives when you click My
Computer go to :

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

Now in the right pane create a new DWORD item and name it
NoDrives. Now modify it's value and set it to 3FFFFFF (Hexadecimal)
Now press F5 to refresh. When you click on My Computer, no drives
will be shown. To enable display of drives in My Computer, simply
delete this DWORD item. It's .reg file is as follows:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersio
n\Policies\Explorer]

"NoDrives"=dword:03ffffff

Never Forget To Back-Up your Registry, it's very very impotant
