    Hi there,

    With Group Policy Objects in Windows, there is a "Hide these specified drives in My Computer" option that lets you hide specific drives. However, it may be necessary to hide only certain drive, but retain access to others.

    There are seven default options for restricting access to drives. You can add other restrictions by modifying the System.adm file for the default domain policy or any custom Group Policy Object (GPO).

    You can follow the steps in this link to do this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-policy/using-group-policy-objects-hide-specified-drives

    Hi JustinNeff-6868

    If you are in a domain, all users must have User level with UAC active.
    You create an user in your AD with local admin level in each computers

    Each user on each computer can't acces all the drive without elevation
    So your Local admin can do it

    I hope bring some help to you
