HOW TO HIDE DRIVES IN WINDOWS XP, no body can find it

[mlakmal]

If u r having any material like porn movies , important docs and u r afraid abt it . dont wory windows XP provides (not officialy ) a utility by which u can hide urs one or more drives .
This utility having lots of function but i m giving u one of them.



1. Go to Start > run > type "diskpart".
a dos window will appear with following discription.
DISKPART>

2. then type "list volume"

this will look like it

Volume### Ltr Label Fs Type Size Status Info
-------------- ---- ------ --- ----- ---- ------- -----

Volume 0 F DC-ROM
Volume 1 C NTFS Partition 7000MB Healthy
Volume 2 D soft NTFS Partition 8000MB Healthy
Volume 3 E Porn NTFS Partition 8000MB Healthy


3.if u wanna hide drive E then type "select volume 3"

then a message will appear in same winwods { Volume 3 is the selected volume}

4.now type " remove letter E"
now a message will come { Diskpart Removed the Drive letter }
sometime it requires the reboot the computer .

Diskpart will remove the letter .Windows XP is not having capabilty to identify the unkown volume.

Don afraid ur Data will ramin same .
to Come backe the Drive repeat the process . but in 4th step whish is shown in this post replace " remove" to "assign"
i mean type " assign letter E"

Even if it works, that's too tedious for me - I mean getting the drive letter back.
Anyway, thanks on behalf of the others.

Hey dudes!

This is not a good method of hiding partitions. Anyone can see all the available partitions in Disk Management (in Computer Management). So if you have removed any drive name anyone can enable that drive letter using Disk Management.

So this will be pointless unless the other users are real noobs! ;)
