Removable Storage Devices

I have an acer with vista business that had the elock program installed. It had locked the E drive and USB ports. I uninstalled the program, and now everything works just fine. My problem is that the icon for the E and F drives is the generic icon. If I change the drive letter to G or after, the correct icon is displayed. A minor issue, but when I use the USB port it automatically uses drive F and uses the generic icon. The problem only occurs on drives E and F Any suggestions?

Re: Removable Storage Devices

Hi jlamb,

Welcome to Vista Forum.

You might try one of these methods to change the F: drive icon to one you want instead.

Drive Icon Change

Hope it helps,
Shawn
