Empty Card Reader appears as four drives?
My 4-slot card reader displays as four drives whether populated or empty. This once seemed as too minor an issue to post on this forum, until the Disk Mgmt showed only three available drive letters for new drive assignments.
When external spin backups are powered-down, the Mgr still considers those spin drive letters as assigned; leaving only a few drive letters available.
How can I remove these card reader slots (as drives) from DiskMgmt & DeviceMgr when card reader slots are empty? I have two readers, but keep one disconnected for this reason.
