Bth, I do not believe you can configure Windows to really prevent users from accessing your would-be hidden drives. This all seems to me like a
Security through obscurity.
Also, how did you prevent your users for example from using WinSCP scripting to access the drives?
Anyway, I have added this request to the tracker:
Issue 2310 – Optionally follow NoViewOnDrive policy
You can vote for it there.
The Administrators of our Corporate Environment have blocked access to specific drives, using GPO, on all of our platforms (Citrix Session Hosts and Windows 10/11 client PC's). The Workspace Environment and Menu Start is controlled. Users cannot start processes like cmd.exe, regedit.exe, powershell.exe, etc.. Users (and even Administrative User) receive an error message when they try to launch processes using "Start | Run..." or shortcut they created themselves on the desktop. These processes are captured and blocked unless they are authorized or a specific shortcut is presented to them by the Controlled Workspace Environment.
Thank you for creating the Request Tracker for this particular issue. I will issue my vote immediately.
