When you try to expand the Storage section of the Computer Management snap-in, there are no sub-sections?
This problem is indicative of missing registry entries needed to initialize the Storage section.
You could restore to a working instance, but it is easier to Copy / Paste thefollowing into a FixStorage.reg file and double-click the file to Merge it into the registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMMCNodeTypes\{476e644a-aaff-11d0-b944-00c04fd8d5b0}] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMMCNodeTypes\{476e644a-aaff-11d0-b944-00c04fd8d5b0}Extensions] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMMCNodeTypes\{476e644a-aaff-11d0-b944-00c04fd8d5b0}ExtensionsContextMenu] "{43668E21-2636-11D1-A1CE-0080C88593A5}"="DfrgSnapin" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMMCNodeTypes\{476e644a-aaff-11d0-b944-00c04fd8d5b0}ExtensionsNameSpace] "{8EAD3A12-B2C1-11d0-83AA-00A0C92C9D5D}"="Disk Management Extension" "{6E8E0081-19CD-11D1-AD91-00AA00B8E05A}"="Logical and Mapped Drives" "{243E20B0-48ED-11D2-97DA-00A024D77700}"="Removable Storage Extension" "{43668E21-2636-11D1-A1CE-0080C88593A5}"="DfrgSnapin" About the Author
