Hide Disk

In the left-hand panel my machine shows a number of disks that are never used, or very rarely.

There are several removable disks for card readers, etc., which are not active unless a card is inserted in the media slot.

In addition, the FACTORY_IMAGE disk shows up.

Can these be hidden from viewing on the left side as a default behavior?

Regards,

Milt

You mean show only drives that exist/are available? And show them automatically if a media is inserted?

The DVD drive would always have to be visible but the other removable drives, yes, they would appear only if media were inserted. The FACTORY_IMAGE drive, assigned by me to Y would never need to be displayed in the XYplorer.

The mini tree was like this some time ago. But it was changed due to user wishes. :) I will think about it... (lo prio though).

In all the dozens of tweaks, is there anything that relates to this? I looked but didn't see anything...or the vers/timeframe when this was changed?

No time to look for it, sorry. The general and valid idea was that the mini tree should never auto-add any nodes.

I think you're thinking of the tweak for the Drives menu:
; Tweak: set to 1 to show only available drives in Go | Drives...
PopupAvailableDrivesOnly=1
