Adding additional Icons to 'my computer'

May 31, 2008

The 'my computer' window is one of the most commonly accessed areas in a
typical Windows XP installation. Here's a way to add several more commonly
used icons to the 'my computer' window to increase its usefulness.
Open REGEDIT

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\

Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace

Add a new key for each icon you wish to add to the 'my computer' window. The

key should be named as below:

{D20EA4E1-3957-11D2-A40B-0C5020524153} : Administrative Tools

{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D} : Printers and Faxes

{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} : Scheduled Tasks

{7007ACC7-3202-11D1-AAD2-00805FC1270E} : Network Connections

{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} : Recycle Bin

{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D} : My Network Places
