In Windows Explorer and some application dialogs the UNC comes before the drive letter making it sometimes impossible to see the drive letter. Current style: charlie on nwsrv1\Data\Department\Users\ (H:) Wanted style H: (nwsrv1\Data\Department\Users\charlie) How to swap the UNC and drive letter or hide the UNC ?

Create a new text file somename.reg. Open this file in NOTEPAD. Copy the following lines and past it in your file. # ----- Start of REG-file ----- REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer] "ShowDriveLettersFirst"=dword:00000004 # ----- End of REG-file ----- Save the file to somewhere on your harddisc. Doubleclick on that file to import the registry settings. Maybe, you have to restart your computer, to take effect. Works great !!! Paul
