"My Computer"

Post by ShinyElGhosteo » Thu Oct 26, 2017 3:55 am

Anyone else still say "My Computer" or "My Documents" Instead of "This PC" or "Documents"? Those older names just felt much friendlier than what we have now in windows.
This is my signature.

I definitely have the habit of still saying the older names. I can see why people still do it because Windows 10 was the first version to change the naming around.

They changed the naming in Windows Vista actually like My Computer went to Computer then in 8.1 it changed to This PC

Lol I forgot about Vista taking the "My" away for a second there.

Honestly, it took me a second to realize the 'my computer' wasn't called that any more. It didn't even register with me that they changed the name. I guess that pretty much answers it - not used to it at all.
