    Hiding administrative tools folder from "all programs" in classic shel


    yea i just tried it w/ cascading to see if something could be cobbled together. No bueno. Seems like the hard-link that ties those two areas together needs to be somehow broken for it to work.

    I can delete ease of access or any other windows folder and access it inside control panel still with no problems, but doing so w/ administrative tools is a no go.

    Appreciate the effort though *Smile One of those things ill have to live with at least for now.

    Right now random pcs not seeing each other under network takes priority anyways *Tongue. This is cosmetic, that's quality of life lol
