How can I hide my C drive? My kids keep installing
programs that cause problems and I have had to reformat
my hard drive several times.

I selected C drive & properties then hide, but that
doesn't work. I tried Windows/properties and it said the
system was using the files.

I really need to fix this problem. We cannot afford
another pc. There has to be a simple way to hide my
drives so they cannot install programs.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Email me a solution to my address above. Thanks again.
