The ‘My Computer’ icon gives us easy access to our hard drives , pen drives and other network-related locations. But if you’re one who enjoys a clutter-free desktop, then maybe you can use this tweak to remove the many program and folder shortcuts on your desktop.
1.> Adding program shortcuts to My Computer
First you’ll have to navigate to a special folder. Shortcuts placed in this folder will be displayed on ‘My Computer’.
Hit Windows Key + R and type in
%appdata%
into the box and click on OK.
Then navigate to Microsoft > Windows > Network Shortcuts. Program shortcuts that you place here will be shown on ‘My Computer’, it’s that simple.


2.> Adding Folder Shortcuts

Now all you have to do is cut (Ctrl + X) the created shortcut and paste (Ctrl + V) into the Network Shortcuts folder, like how we transferred the program shortcuts earlier.

Thus, it serves a neat way to get your things organized. Do try it out and please leave your comments if you find any problem.
