Default My Computer on Task Bar


My Computer has appeared on the task bar. It shows as each individual drive. I don't know what I did to get it there (it is always operator error, right), but I would like to get rid of it.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Nitram

Try this.
Right click on an empty area of the task bar.
Choose Toolbars and look for one marked My computer or similar that may explain what you are seeing and uncheck it to remove.

Many thanks. I retired two years ago after spending the last 25 working with PCs! I really am losing it
