duplicate drives listed usb windows 10 registry fix

[darknkreepy3#]

So microsoft yet again screwed up another simple thing in windows 10. It is amazing how bad this new operating system is:

If you have external drives, they show up as a second list even after initially listed in my computer. To remove the second list:

goto REGEDIT.EXE with the windows key and type REGEDIT or just open WIN+R window and type regedit.exe

goto this key

Code: Select all

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\DelegateFolders

and then delete this entry by left clicking and the delete key, voila no duplicates.

Code: Select all

{F5FB2C77-0E2F-4A16-A381-3E560C68BC83}

ALSO for x64 (64 bit) systems, go here and delete the subkey as well

Code: Select all

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\DelegateFolders

idiots.
