Hide/Show All the Drives in Windows


If you want to hide/show all the drives in Windows then here is the tutorial to do it:

1. Type “regedit” in run or start menu search box and press enter.

2. Navigate to the following registry key:

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

If the above key does not exist then create it manually.

3. Right-click on the right-side pane and select New -> DWORD (32-bit) value. Name it “NoDrives“.

4. Double-click the DWORD value and type “03ffffff” in the Value Data box.

That’s it. Now all the drives will be hidden in Windows.

To undo it again then remove the DWORD value you have created in Step 3.

You can also download the registry script which will do the task automatically:
