My Computer vs. Drive

I was wondering how you actually make a My Computer icon for Avedesk. I know how to make a drive, easy enough, but is it possible to make a My Computer icon that works, AND (if you are like me) can display the space available and such for the main drive???

Ok, did some searching and I got the link to work, but I still dont know how to show the available space, etc on the sub-label.

I don't think its possible - not with the current AveDesk.

Ok, thanks.

Well, tell us too, how to get My Computer to work with Avedesk?

create a new shortcut in AD and put this in the link field

::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}

Njoy :)

@Unbeliever: is it a known bug, that when you create shotcut-desklet for 'My Computer' the label always changes back to '::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}' ?

Desklet properties/Label Format...make sure the two checkboxes are unchecked.

@ bh2 - my point excatly.

@ wiebeest - if u have read the AveDesk tutoriald ud know that it was NOT a bug.

There is also a desklet called curscreen that is a specific shortcut to My Computer.

You can easily disable the screencap function and use any icon you want with it, but still no stats.

Ok: shoot me I'm a moron.

I had read your tutorial before (my compliments btw),

but obviously now thoroughly enough.

Now it works :D
