^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Basically, I want to remove Network and Homegroup.
I put it here because there is so little people who go into the Windows subforum.
For Homegroup:
Open Regedit and navigate to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B4FB3F98-C1EA-428d-A78A-D1F5659CBA93}\ShellFolder
In there there's an string attribute called PinToNameSpaceTree with no value. Delete it.
And for Network navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}\ShellFolder
and do the same.
You may need to take permissions of these by right clicking and going to Permissions.
Click Advanced and go to the Owner Tab. Click Administrators then Ok. Then in the first dialog click Administrators and change its settings to Allow Full Control. Hit Ok.
(You can also reverse this by adding back the PinToNamespaceTree string back, also you can add it to others if it's a special folder or enumeration like the Control Panel)
Panda i love you.
How the hell did you even figure that out?

I came across a way to add the control panel to the sidebar. So I looked at the data and figured for each namespace for a special folder, virtual folder, or any enumerated folder such as the Control Panel you could pin it.
The way I found these two was simple search the registry for PinToNamespaceTree and for the each results I checked the DefaultIcon property and matched it to whatever it read. For example the DefaultIcon property for HomeGroup is imageres.dll,-1013. So I checked if it had the PinToNamespaceTree string in ShellFolder.
Also if you know about the Advanced Control Panel (some may call this God Mode) it's the same GUID you add to the filename. (So with the two GUIDs above you could do the same thing as the Advanced Control Panel)
