I want to remove the default c$ and d$ shares that Windows automatically creates. I've tried removing them manually but when I reboot, Windows recreates them. How do I get rid of them????
Start the registry editor
Move to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
If you are using Workstation create a value (Edit - Add Value) called AutoShareWks (AutoShareServer for server) of type DWORD and press OK. It will ask for a value, type the number 0.
Close the registry editor
Reboot
Start the registry editor
