How to Delete the Files Stored on This Computer category in the My Computer window?

In Windows XP, the My Computer window’s listing is broken down by categories: Hard Disk Drives, Devices with Removable Storage, and so on. One of these categories is Files Stored on This Computer, which appears at the top of the My Computer window. If a user doesn’t need it , you can get rid of it. To do so, go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\M*cf*t\Windows\Current Version\Explorer\MyComputer\
NameSpace\Delegate Folders

Delete the {59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c55595fe6b30ee} subkey to remove the category.
