Thanks................................. ..............So when you log on to a computer, the My Computer name changes?this will be automatically not manually.I don't know how to do it.

Is this your friend's computer you're talking about?I  believe renaming the My computer icon in each account will store that name for each account, thus making the "My computer" icon have a different label within the separate accounts.That should work but if it didnt use a batch script on startup
something LIKE:  ren "my computer.lnk" %username%.lnkthe "My computer" icon isn't  shortcut...He doesnt say what OS he is using.

He doesnt say what OS he is using.
On my vista My Computer is a shortcut.
Right Click the Desktop and go to Properties.
Click on the Desktop TAB and click Customize Desktop.
Tick the box next to My Computer and press OK.ok that isnt how you do it in vista but i enabled the icon. what is the point of it anyway when it does the same as the shortcut except you can right-click and go to system on the contol panel?Meanwhile...My Computer, Recycle Bin, Network neighborhood/My Network places, are not Shortcuts.

They are Shell NAMESPACES represented via icons. Shortcuts have a shortcut overlay beneath them. My computer only has that when it literally IS a shortcut, in which case it means the shortcut was created after the fact rather then the "official" method Carbon Dudeoxide has posted. the Vista method of doing the same thing is of course to right-click the desktop->Personalize, and select the "Change Desktop icons" task pane link.


This will have the same effect as it does in XP or previous versions, which merely changes the default icons shown within the desktop shell namespace.


Of course- you CAN create shortcuts TO these namespaces, but they act different then the actual namespace icon- for example, there is no LNK shortcut in the FOLDER, which is the leading reason to deduce that it is not a shortcut- additionally, the properties context menu does not show the standard "File Properties" property page, but rather the same dialog present via the WINDOWS key+Break combination.
