If you have a secure server or workstation you wish to hide from the general browser list,
then enable this setting.
Open your registry and find the key below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, named "Hidden"
and set it to "1".
Reboot the computer. It may take up to an hour for the server to disappear
from the browse list.
Hint: The same result can be achieved by executing NET CONFIG SERVER /HIDDEN:YES
on the workstation
The Usual Disclaimer: Modifying the registry can cause serious problems
that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Use the information
provided at your own risk.
