I think it's a ghost drive and I have no idea how it appeared. here are the screenshots of this ghost drive. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/nWJaUlv.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/LbNYFTV.png[/IMG] Also, this ghost drive (F drive doesn't appear in "Disk Management". but there is one strange situation I have observed. Situation is like this: Whenever I use VeraCrypt to mount a volume, say with drive letter Z: , there appears two drives; one is Z: (chosen by me in VeraCrypt) and other is F: (ghost drive too is mounted with same properties as for Z drive. When I dismount all, Z: disappears instantly, and mounted F: drive returns to its inaccessible state after a right-click refresh. I do not have any third party virtual CD/DVD ROM software installed on my computer. I gather some information on the appearance of ghost drive and I think it is related to MS Office installation (click to run) but I installed MS office 2016 earlier this month and this ghost drive appeared just yesterday (or, a day before yesterday). please help me on this issue.
