    Remove entry from "My Computer"


    Hi,

    Since some time I have the "Nokia Lumia 920" entry in my My Computer tree.
    But since almost the same time it is somehow corrupted - when I click it / hover it or something similar ms explorer crashes.

    So after ignoring it for a long time, I think it is time to remove it - but the question is how?
    How do I remove the entry from there.



    KR,

    Normally it caused by corrupted hard drive or file check HD for errors or you may be able to remove it from cmd prompt
