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
and then delete this entry by left clicking and the delete key, voila no duplicates.
ALSO for x64 (64 bit) systems, go here and delete the subkey as well
idiots.
