Here is a tip for those who like to hack the registry.
With this tip, every logged in User can see their Username and Computer Name on My Computer....
So, check it out....
Preliminary step : Show the 'My Computer' icon, go to Control Panel, Display, Desktop (Tab), Customize Desktop, Check My Computer.
Principle: Find the setting for the My Computer object in the HKey_Classes_Root, substitute two variables for the original setting.
Warning: This is a particularly difficult registry change to make so export the registry FIRST.
Regedit, File (menu), Export.
Getting Started
a) Use regedit to locate
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\ {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}Rename LocalizedString to LocalizedString.Old.
I advice this step in case anything goes wrong and you want to revert to how it was.
b) Create a new VALUE type Expand_SZ.
Name it LocalizedString.
Set the value of LocalizedString to %Username% at %Computername%
Press F5 to refresh the 'My Computer', there is no need to logoff and certainly do not reboot.
THANKS....
