Though it is troublesome, carry out diskmgmt.msc when you leave a seat, and there is a method to delete a drive letter.
But a person knowing a lot about a PC may notice the trick.
sorry for my bad english:rolleyes:

On properties security tab, but first you have to uncheck the "use file sharing(recommended)" on folder options view tab to make it appear ,, now you can select the users that can access it if you are a administrator or your the one created that folder!

there is an app posted on the forum... the name is folder lock... u can download it and once u have installed it, u can put a password on the drive and it can then be only accessible by u when u put in the password...
