[Win10] In explorer, there is a networked system that is showing that I want to remove

[jnelsoninjax]

Basically it's showing my CCTV system, but whenever I try to access the shared folders on it, I get a message stating that I do not have permission. I never saved it, but it still shows up, and the only method I can use to access the system is typing the IP address in the address bar. Is there anyway to remove the system from showing up within explorer?

Shadzstore is the NAS, but CCTV is the system I wish to remove from showing here

Hello,

Do you have any idea how the CCTV device is being enumerated by Windows 10?  My initial thought would be to either try and disable that protocol on the CCTV device, or to block the specific protocol being used for that device at the firewall.

No idea. That's part of the reason I am asking here, because it shows up after reboot as well, and I know it's not mounted, so as far as anything else, I can't tell. Scratch that, I figured it out, it's using Remote Desktop, that's why it is showing up there, at least that is why I think it is showing up there.

If it's showing up under Network it's because it's broadcasting that it is SMB enabled.  Disable SMB on it and it should go away.  RDP has nothing to do with it.

Thanks! I will disable SMB and see if it goes away
