Removable Disks List Taking Up Space in WExplorer
Posted by Edna on February 27th, 2006


I've got a list of 5 Removable Disks in My Computer & using a depth of 2" of
my screen in WExpl. I'd prefer to see an extended list of files vs these
Disks that I can't physically use.

These entries don't show up in my Notebook nor old computers but as I read,
they're for Removable Storage USB Components, they must be there.

As such Is there any way to put these dull repetitive entries in hiding or
maybe all in one folder? Thx for any advice you may care to extend.

Direct download of TweakUI

Run TweakUI and navigate to My Computer -> Drives. Uncheck the
ones you don't want displayed.

FYI, if you have a printer that has card reader slots in the
front, they may show up as removable drives.

Good luck
