Didn’t “My Computer” exist since like Windows 95 or so?
Also back when it was first introduced I heard some explanation that people were expected to rename it using their actual name. So something like “Joe’s Computer.” Though I don’t think anyone really did that in practice, which just resulted in everyone always having the “My Computer” icon on their windows desktop and it became the norm.
Is that even still possible? Renaming My Computer i mean.
you can actually still do that! enable the desktop icon for 'computer' in settings->personalisation->themes->desktop icon settings, then go to that icon on the desktop and right click it and rename. although i have gotten used to win11's 'user files' one with quick access and recent and use that one instead---when it works, anyway (right now it is not)
I would think not. But I’m a tech illiterate Linux user who hasn’t used windows in 20+ years.
