I'm not sure what "problem" you are describing.
My phone does exactly the same thing, when connected it presents itself in Devices and Drives
If you don't want it to behave normally, then you can stop connecting it.
If your computer supports Blue Tooth natively, then you can turn off Blue Tooth on one end or the other (your phone or computer).
Thank you for the solution for one of my other problems on another pc.
However, the bluetooth was turned off for both the pc and phone.
Although its there in 'This PC', the device is not reflected in control panel under devices and printers.
Under device manager, with the show hidden devices option enabled, it is also not reflected.
Even under disk management there is just my disk and external hard disk, no phone device connected as a disk.
I even cleared the list of bluetooth paired devices and no luck.
I did try looking through the registry but with only luck on how to hide the 6 folders shown in 'This PC'
All I can say is that is just there and there is nothing I can do with it. I believe my answer is in regedit
Something wrong in the registry is causing an item to be unremovable by normal means
