    Hi. I just noticed that for a while now my laptop has my DVD drive and a BD-Rom drive (which should be a virtual drive) listed. I have daemon tools installed and am wondering if that is why. I exited daemon tools and everything yet its always there.

    Or set your file manager/folder options to hide empty drives.

    Also, right-click Daemon Tools-> Virtual Drives-> Device-> Remove drive.
