Drives hidden in Windows 7

[Shaan12]

Okay I am using windows 7 Ultimate X64 and it was working fine without any problem. And then all of sudden it is hiding my card reader drives which is empty and now it is hiding one of my hard drives. It's not set up to be hidden and I have not changed any settings in the control panel but Windows is hiding my drive. Can some one please help me out.

Okay so try using the following method :
First open My Computer, then click Organize and tick Menu Bar.
Then click on Tools and then Folder Options then on View and change the view settings till you get it right and the way you want it. You can also access Folder Options in Control Panel.

Well there are two different ways in which you can access Folder Option.
First is as follows the Menu Bar can be temporarily brought back in either Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer by tapping the ALT key. This frees up the screen real estate by not permanently leaving it up there. The ALT key acts as a toggle to bring up the menu bar or remove it if it is not permanently selected in Organize > Layout > Menu Bar

Second way will be : You can go directly to Folder Options by clicking the Start button and typing "folder" (without quotes) "Folder options" should appear in the selection list and can be clicked on.
Try any of this two methods it should work.

Thanks a lot for those replies. I was able to access the Folder Options and was able to make changes and change the way it viewed before.
I have another doubt over here, I have heard from my friends that there is another way through registry for making changes in the folder option settings.
Is any one aware about it.?
