Hello anyone,

I accidently deleted the My Computer Icon and obviously
the functions that go with it as when I go to it I cannot
access any of my drive etc.

could anyone tell me how I can get it back or do I have
to re-install windows XP altogether.

Thanks

Len

Click to expand...

The My Computer icon with all it's features should also be in the Start
Menu - it is by default.

To restore it to the desktop, right click an empty piece of background - go
to properties - then to Desktop - Customize desktop then check the items you
want to appear on the desktop and click ok.
