How can I make a shorcut to a hidden drive/partition with no letter???
Okay so I managed to figure out all my problems with my partitions and my computer not starting and I am finally at the last step. I have a partition made specifically for Minecraft with a smaller cluster size so it runs faster...
Now I would like it so this drive has no letter so everyone doesn't see the Minecraft drive on there accounts (in-case they say whats that oh delete etc...). So how can I create a shortcut to the launcher in this drive without allowing the drive to have a letter??? Regards, Radical924 |

How about a security setting?

Yes, I suggested not to have the drive hidden rather change it's security settings
so that only you will have access to it thus no other user will be able to accidentally modify any of the files inside. (see post above) |

I'd use YoYo's solution first to test how it works for you.

EDIT: Oh yeah we are all admins so... they don't need to enter in a password... I would remove admin privileges but then I would always get asked about UAC... If there was a way to have an admin account with no password but then have a password at login (After I logged in) then it would work perfectly... Although I am sure they have no clue about the security thing but again it would be better if it was hidden that way I don't get asked about it all the time... |

Is this your PC?
If not ask your parents if you can have this game on the PC and allay any fears they may have that it will craftily take over and mine your home. If it's your PC ask them to respect that you have this program you want left alone, then install it normally to avoid problems. Maybe compromise and install Scrabble for them. |

Oh and if it isn't possible I guess I'll have to settle with the permissions thing... But if there is a way please do tell...... |
