IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the registry. Before you edit the registry, you should first make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and User.dat). Both are hidden files in the Windows folder.
SYMPTOMSAfter you create a custom Network Neighborhood by using the Local User\Shell\Custom Folders\Custom Network Neighborhood setting in System Policy Editor, Network Neighborhood stills displays your default workgroup and the Entire Network icon.
CAUSEThis behavior is by design. There are individual settings in System Policy Editor that prevent the default workgroup and the Entire Network icon from being displayed in Network Neighborhood.
RESOLUTIONThe following steps describe how to prevent the default workgroup and the Entire Network icon from being displayed in your custom Network Neighborhood. NOTE: You can edit the registry using System Policy Editor (Poledit.exe) or Registry Editor (Regedit.exe). Check with your network administrator before you make any changes to the registry. Note that you should make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and User.dat) before you edit the registry. System Policy Editor is available in the Admin\Apptools\Poledit folder on the Windows 95 CD-ROM. Use the Add/Remove Programs tool in Control Panel to install System Policy Editor. System Policy Editor is included in the CD-ROM version of Windows 95, but not in the floppy disk version. If you are using the floppy disk version of Windows 95 and want to use System Policy Editor, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base for information about the availability of System Policy Editor: ARTICLE-ID: Q135315 TITLE : CD-ROM Extras for Microsoft Windows 95 Upgrade
