My Computer in Windows 95 allows you to search for directories and files on every drive on your computer, copy files, and format diskettes. The My Computer icon is always on the desktop and may be opened by double clicking on it. The view of folders and files may also be changed to a list or icons, depending on the preference of the user, just as in Windows Explorer. One of the main differences between the two file management programs is that in Windows Explorer you work in one window, and in My Computer you work in successive windows as you open folders to look at files.
My Computer can be set up to look at only one window at a time. My
computer may be the most comfortable approach for those who are used
to the Macintosh operating system.
