    Q Drive?


    Sorry if this isn't in the right section. I just noticed when I went into my computer that I had a Q drive. It was not there yesterday when I checked it. The drive has 0 storage space and it won't let me access it. Any idea on what this is and how do I get rid of it? Thanks

    Nope, it's fine. If you want to remove the drive from My Computer, you can delete the drive letter from Disk Management.
