How to hide a computer from the network browse list

To hide the computer from being visible on the browse list, run regedit.exe, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Parameters. Double-click Hidden and modify from 0 to 1. Or type the following command: net config server /hidden:yes.
