TheTOM_SK Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I do not recommend to remove Public folder. I have just spent a few houres going through my settings, trying to find out, why I can not instal games like FEAR, NFS Carbon and etc, which reports, that there is not enough space on the HDD. It was due to removed Public folder. Whatever is there, it is important to keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeronimo Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 (edited) I would indeed not recommend to remove it, but hiding from excplorer I did with the following Registry tweak:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ; Remove Public folder from Explorer[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\{4336a54d-038b-4685-ab02-99bb52d3fb8b}] Edited February 10, 2007 by Jeronimo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
