Drive showing in My Computer but not in Disk Managment

I have a System Reserved drive showing up in My Computer, but it isn't showing up in Disk Management so that I can remove the drive letter from it. Screenshots are attached.

Any help removing this rouge drive letter will be greatly appreciated!

Hello holydevil,

You might see if you may be able to remove the drive letter using OPTION TWO in the tutorial below, and deleting the \DosDevices\I: Binary value.

Hope this helps, :)

That looked very promising, but alas, drive letter "I" is not in the registry there.

Odd. Does it still show after restarting the PC?

If so, then you might see if adding a drive letter to the "System Reserved" partition in Disk Management, then removing the drive letter may toggle it to not show in Computer anymore.

I also noticed that the two dynamic partitions on Disk 1 have the same drive letter D: . Are these spanned volumes? If so, then nothing to worry about. Personally, I think it would be better for it to be a basic disk instead of dynamic.

I tried setting system reserved to I and setting it back to nothing before making the thread. No dice. Also it has persisted through the two or thee reboots I've done in the last few weeks.

It turned into dynamic when I extended it, but it isn't related to that being dynamic because I only changed that a day ago when messing with stuff, which I wish I hadn't done. I'll just have to deal with that and make it "normal" when I get a chance to copy data off that drive. Here's hoping that reformatting that disk and getting rid of the extra 100 MB thing gets rid of the I drive, although I don't see any reason for it to since it's not set to I.

In addition to Disk 1 being dynamic you appear to have pagefiles on it. I think the pagefile is best on your Disk 0 OS partition. Brink may comment further and on his tutorial
Virtual Memory Paging File - Change
I'm guessing Disk 0 is an SSD and disk 1 is your old HDD OS disk ????

My pagefile is 16 GB because I have 16 GB of ram, so it would take up way too much space on the SSD. I could probably just delete the page file though since 16 GB would be way more than enough for what I do on that computer.

Yes, Disk 0 is the OS disk and Disk 1 used to have Windows 7 on it, and when I formatted it I forgot to delete the 100 MB partition and just formatted the larger one.
