Figbot Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 I am the administrator on an XP system. How do I hide an entire partition or Disk from the other users. I know how to hide folders and programs. I have a minor security concern that prompts this query. Thanks for any suggestions. R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurting101 Posted February 9, 2002 Share Posted February 9, 2002 You can block access to the partition by right clicking it and clicking Security, as long as Simple File Sharing is turned off. To hide the drive, get TweakUI and go: - My Computer - Drives , then uncheck the drive you don't want to be seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
