    2 duplicate drives in File Explorer Win10 ver 1809 see local URL


    Old thread two drives in File Explorer Solved - Windows 10 Forums
    Same thing with Win10 build 1809 have duplicate(s) of drive(s) that are non-removable marked as removable. Which is why new post.
    Drives are also listed in Safely Remove Hardware and Media as removable but now includes my C:\ drive SSD
    ,above has had that issue for some time.

    So 3 internal drives/non-removable showing as removable. or 2 drives

    :)

  2. File Explorer for Windows 10 shows Duplicate External Drive Folders/Files

    Windows has recreated the key. I've just found another way to hide the duplicate removable drives. You can download the REG file here.

    Drives Listed Twice in Explorer Navigation Pane (Fix) » Winhelponline

    [Solved] Drives appear twice in Windows 10 File Explorer navigation pane

    You need to logoff and login back for the changes the take effect.

    (There is also a UNDO file if you want to revert back the setting.)

  3. Duplicate Icons displayed for USB drives in File Explorer.

    As you have recommended above I will attempt to give you a crude picture of the File Explorer screen:

    In the left pane the drives are listed as follows

    Windows (C2 duplicate drives in File Explorer Win10 ver 1809 see local URL :)

    Recovery (D2 duplicate drives in File Explorer Win10 ver 1809 see local URL :)

    TOSHIBA Canvio Hard Drive (F2 duplicate drives in File Explorer Win10 ver 1809 see local URL :)

    TOSHIBA Canvio Hard Drive (F2 duplicate drives in File Explorer Win10 ver 1809 see local URL :)

    The two above are USB 3.0 drives and are duplicate images (the problem).

    In the right pane (Folder/File) for each of the duplicate drives (F2 duplicate drives in File Explorer Win10 ver 1809 see local URL :) are the following Folder/File: Upon examination of these folder/files for each drive they seem to be identical but I can't be certain of that. Here is a picture of the right pane for
    each drive.

    Folders/File Picture:

    Bunze4 (folder)

    Images (carl-pc) (folder)

    Images (carl-pc) (disk 0) (folder)

    MAC Driver (Folder)

    My Files (carl-pc) (folder)

    My Files (carl-pc) (2) (foldrr)

    and many more

    I hope this helps in solving the problem
