1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted March 4, 2008 1. DDz Quorum Posted March 4, 2008 I have a problem on a chaps computer I look after. Win xp home. He has lost from his desktop the "My Computer" Icon. It has also gone from the "Start" list as well. Any offers as to how to get it back ? Friar Quote
Blairgowrie Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 I have lost it before. Fairly easy to get it back. Ithink all you have to do is go to Control Panel and right click on System. Then send shortcut to desktop. Something like that anyway. Quote
Rattler Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Right click on the taskbar, click properties, click on 'start menu' tab, click on the 'customize' button, select the 'advanced' tab, and select the radio button option that you want for the start menu. Quote
BBloke Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 To get it back on your desktop: Right click an empty are on the desktop and select Properties. Select Desktop tab Click Customize Desktop button 4 Checkboxes at the top realting to: My Documents, My Computer, My Network Places and Internet Explorer. Adding My Computer through this way gives you more options when you right click "My Computer" icon on your desktop. "Manage" is a good one to go for Quote
