I have a number of devices on my network: some PC's, servers, and printers. When using Windows Explorer to view my network devices are separated into two categories:
- Computer (Number of devices)
- Printers (Number of devices)
How can I change the Categories definition of my servers so that they are listed in their own category and not mixed in with the PC's?
For example:
- Computer (Number of devices)
- Server (Number of devices)
- Printers (Number of devices)

Essentially each device talks with your computer using a specific network protocol. Depending on that protocol and what information is exchanged the Windows explorer categorizes the devices. – MrPaulch – 2015-08-31T10:21:35.890
I am presuming that the device identifies itself using LLT (Link Layer Topology) therefore I am hoping that the Categories value of Computer in this case is stored somewhere in the registry. Does anyone know where this categories value is stored? – Antony – 2015-09-01T22:10:42.753
