Change target of tak list Explorer Icon to My Computer

by  markdmac  Posted    (Edited  )
If you are running windows 7 and hate the "Libraries" default on your task bar, here is how to change it to default to "My Computer".

[ul]
[li]Right click the icon for Windows Explorer on the task bar.[/li]
[li]Right click Windows Explorer[/li]
[li]Left click Properties[/li]
[li]Set the target to be:[/li]
Code: 
%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /root,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
[/ul]
The icon will now default to the My Computer menu instead of libraries.
