Actually, if it's just the drive hide value you're clearing out all you
really need to do is kill Explorer.exe in the session you are running
under, load up taskmanager, and start explorer.exe again. 
 
The explorer shell on a reload will re-read all current values in the
registry. So . . once you've changed the value to a "0", killing and
restarting explorer.exe should get your drives back in My computer.

Thanks Jim - I did it via registry... that's why I couldn't find it.  So
my other question is...if I just clear the entry, and reboot, will that
bring it back?  Or do I have to change it to 0x0 (I think that's the hex
null... not sure though). 
 
Thanks guys for your help! 
 
Jennifer

Perhaps something on http://thin.net/hidedrives.cfm  will ring a bell
for you.

        Hi guys - 
         
            I'm having a really hard time with my Citrix server today,
because I can't remember how to UNdo something that I did.  I'm trying
to install the Netbackup 5.0 client for Windows on my Windows 2000/MFXP
server, and it will not run, it just hangs.  So I think it has something
to do with the fact that I hid the local drives on the server.  But now
I can't figure out how to UNhide them temporarily to make this work.
I've been all through the Citrix Policies - I have none defined.  I have
been all through the local security policy, and I can't locate it.  And
of course, I didn't notate my documentation on HOW I did this.  So if
anyone would be so kind to flip me the answer whilst I dig for it, I'd
*really* appreciate it.
         
        Thanks so much,
         
        Jennifer
