Hello, Sure—here is a natural English translation faithful to the tone and content:

Hello,

otherwise I have a little problem: my hard drives show up twice in Windows 10 Explorer. Can someone help?

    Hello,

    Is this an external disk?

    Modify the registry key as follows:

    - Press Windows + R and type regedit

    This opens "Registry Editor" with the registry keys on the left and their respective values on the right

    - Expand on the left to the very end the key: (Or copy the path into the address bar)

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\DelegateFolders

    It is this key: {F5FB2C77-0E2F-4A16-A381-3E560C68BC83} that should be modified, rather than deleted, so you can revert if needed.

    Right-click this key and choose "Rename" and type "modified" right before the key (or any other characters), like this:

    modified {F5FB2C77-0E2F-4A16-A381-3E560C68BC83}

    Then restart Windows.
