Hi George.
If you mean My Computer on the Desk-Top, I pressed the Right Mouse Key and
selected Properties, but all I get is directories titled: Themes: Desk Top:
Screen Saver: Appearance and Settings.
If you mean, within the Control Panel\System, then I'm unable to get
WindowEyes to locate anything sounding like My Computer.
Goodness George, I should know all of this stuff after the years I've been
using computers, but perhaps not having too venture into these areas keeps
us safe and ignorant eh?
Best wishes.
Andy
