davidoff123 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 (edited) Hey,I can't remove "Devices and Printers" link form start menu, I tried to edit the prosperites of start menu and there's no such thing as "Devices and Printers". Is there any way to remove the link, maybe via registry or somehow? Edited March 13, 2010 by davidoff123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Right-click on the Start "Orb"/button, select properties. You should be on the Start Menu tab. Click the Customize button. You will see there is a Devices and Printers option (as well as many others). If you uncheck that, it will go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to do that milion times. Need an alternative way.Edit: the thing is in the registry its located in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced , or should be becouse I dont have it. I sould be something like Start_ShowDevices or something like that.Can anyone help to find that reg key and provide me the info. I think Im missing the registry entry and I cant guess it what it could be. Edited March 14, 2010 by davidoff123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
