view in My Computer

[Guest]

Some how I have changed the view in "My Computer" and I don't know how to
change it back. It used to divide everything up into groups like "files
stored on this computer", "hard disk drives", "devices with removable
storage", and "network drives".

Now everything is in one big grouping with no heading. Any idea how I can
restore it to the original view?

Thanks,
Pat

Hi,

Click view/arrange icons by/show in groups. Note that you cannot use this in
list or details mode.

Thank you. It is actually a two step process. I have to enable "show in
groups" AND select to "arrange by type".
