Drive Categories in My Computer

's Computer Specifications

It has always been that when I open My Computer, the drives listed on
the right side of the Windows Explorer screen are listed under a
category heading like Local or Network.

Now it just lists the drives with no category. Not that it's that big
a deal I just like it the old way. I'm guessing it's a registry
setting, but I don't know which one.

Any help?

Open My Computer - right-click on empty area and point to Arrange Icons By
Click on Type and again right-click and point to Arrange Icons By - make a
check mark on "Show in Groups".

Hope this is what you are looking for, let us know!
