Hide/Prevent access to drives in my computer fails to block C:

by beng . Updated 17 years, 2 months ago

Hi everyone,

Starting to tear my hair out here.

Im trying to reorganise the OUs and Group Policies here and I have set up a new OU and set up a policy and a user all of which is being used by a virtual machine in order to test the policy.

What im trying to get to is that users can access my computer for access to network drives etc but not to c:.

I have set up the prevent access to specified drives from my computer and the hide drives option to be A B C D & E, which works fine for the other drives but no matter what i do i cant hide the c: drive.

I have run rsop.msc to get the list of what has been applied and it seems to have been applied correctly without any errors but stil not doing what it should.

Has anyone come accross this or know away around it? I realise i can lock down the c: drive via NTFS permissions but it would just make more sense if the icon was hidden.

hope that all makes sesne.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
