For many computer users the My Computer window is the first step in finding a folder. Folder2MyPC allows you to add favourite locations to be added to this window.

The interface is very simple to use and it is possible to browse for a folder to add to My Computer, rather than having to remember it exactly. A custom icon can be used to make the folder more distinctive.

The new link can be opened as a folder in the same window or a shortcut so that it opens in a window of its own.

Links are not restricted to folders on the computer as it is also possible to create shortcuts for software in My Computer in some Control Panel categories.

Finally existing Windows folders such as Control Panel, Program Folders and the Recycle Bin can be added.

Changes can either be made for all users of the computer or just the user currently logged in.
