How to get a “My Computer” Icon on the Desktop on Windows 10 and Windows 11
To display the “This PC” or the “My Computer” icon, right-click your desktop, then navigate to Personalize > Themes > Desktop Icon Settings. Select “Computer” from the listed options and then click “Apply” to add it to your desktop. The My Computer icon was a fixture on Windows desktops for decades, but it was removed and renamed with the introduction of Windows 10. Now properly called “This PC,” the icon must be added back manually.
