Computer question (after 8.1 update 1)

[huckleberry]

So I installed 8.1 update 1 and now this appears in my explorer window. C drive shows up twice as C and F. Also the system reserve partition is showing up as E. I have tried to use disk manager to hide them but it doesn't work. Anyone ever seen a problem like this?

I'm still on 8.1 is update 1 an opt in thing?

No, it's included in auto-updates.

Found this, I absolve myself of any responsibility for your computer losing the blue smoke that makes computers work if you do it:

Is it possible that somewhere along the line a subst command got executed? If you do the following:

subst m: d:\

Then you will see two drive letters in Explorer for your D drive, but not in the disk management console. To check if this is your problem then unsubst the bogus drive letter as follows (assuming the bogus letter is M)

subst m: /d

From command prompt.

Thanks for the link benji. Unfortunately it gives me an invalid parameter when trying to remove the F drive. I tested it by using the subst command to duplicate the C as and M drive and the deleting it which worked perfectly. Oddly enough I can't access the F drive from explorer either.
