Hiding Any Combination of Drives

If you want to stop a drive or any combination of drives appearing in Explorer or My Computer

Add the Binary Value of 'NoDrives' in the registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Give it a value from a combination of the table below:

• A: 01 00 00 00
• B: 02 00 00 00
• C: 04 00 00 00
• D: 08 00 00 00
• E: 10 00 00 00
• F: 20 00 00 00
• G: 40 00 00 00
• H: 80 00 00 00
• I: 00 01 00 00
• J: 00 02 00 00
• K: 00 04 00 00
• L: 00 08 00 00
• M: 00 10 00 00
• N: 00 20 00 00
• O: 00 40 00 00
• P: 00 80 00 00
• Q: 00 00 01 00
• R: 00 00 02 00
• S: 00 00 04 00
• T: 00 00 08 00
• U: 00 00 10 00
• V: 00 00 20 00
• W: 00 00 40 00
• X: 00 00 80 00
• Y: 00 00 00 01
• Z: 00 00 00 02

Where (for eg) you want to hide Drives {C,E,J,O,R,U,Y,Z} you would give 'NoDrives' the value 14 42 12 03
Where C+E = 14, J+O = 42, R+U=12 and Y+Z = 03

Please NOTE: The Numbers are to be added in HEXadecimal ie: ABCD = 0F, not 15 All Drives Visible is 00 00 00 00 All Drives Hidden is FF FF FF 03
