I want to hide a hard disk for users who are logging in localy on my system. Only me may view the disk.

It seems that i can't change it to a personal folder.

The check box is greyed out.

It's about users who log in localy

Can't you just change the permissions so that it is Denied to all but you?

Example:

Code:

                         Allow        Deny
All users                  O            X
Your user                  X            O

or maybe the other way around depending on what the priority direction is (up or down).
