Is there someone who knows how I can get rid of this unsightly part of "This PC" (hah!) in 8.1? And I mean REMOVE completely, not just collapse. Thanks in advance.
Damn... I know Mr Jinje posted registry keys to remove those, but I don't know how to search to find what he posted. I guess if you went through his activity or asked him, you could probably find them.
