    Adding My Computer to the Start Menu? (how do I do it?) Win7 64


    Hi,
    For some reason My Computer is no longer showing in the start> Menu on the right side? Or perhaps it was never there

    Is there a way that I could put it back there?

    TIA

    Hi there Try this Right-click on the Start Menu icon and choose "Properties".
    Click the "Customize" button.

    Start Menu - Customize

    In the first item ("Computer") select "Display as link".
    Click "OK" twice
