Windows 10: On File Explorer left hand side list,how to remove hard drive in list?

How do I remove the hard drive "storage" line in this list on file explorer? It is not a quick access. I right click on it and it there's no option to remove it from the list.

:)

 

How do I get all of my hard drives listed on the left side as well as the right side of Windows Explorer?

You said:

select volume x

(x is a volume number, of the drive you want remove)

remove letter=x

(x is a selected volume letter)

I don't want to remove a hard drive from the list. I want them to be
added to the left side of the Windows Explorer pane.

Diskpart found all of my hard drives. They are not all listed in the left hand side pane of Windows Explorer, only on the right.

 

File Explorer- no drive letters are listed.

The File Explorer in Windows 10, shows the Frequent folders list and Recent files list by default. You can view the drives by clicking on This PC tab on the left site of the File Explorer. But if you wish the File Explorer
to open This PC showing drives list by default, then follow these steps:

1. In Windows 10, open a new File Explorer window and click the View tab from the ribbon toolbar.

2. In the View tab, find and click on Options, listed by default on the far right side of the ribbon.

3. In the Folder Options window, make sure you’re on the General tab and then find the drop-down box labeled Open File Explorer To. Click the drop-down menu and select This PC. Click OK to
save your changes and close the window. Now your File Explorer opens to Drives list by default.

Hope this helps!

...

you get the idea. ( too lazy to put it in a for loop and test it.

or just open regedit and remove all the fileX from that key.
