Solved: My Computer window
Hello,

For some weird reason that I don't understand in the last day or two the layout of the My Computer window on my laptop changed to a different format, shown in the pic attached. The icons are now listed kind of randomly at the top of the window, where before they were listed down the page in categories with a line separating each section. I prefer the old format, and I don't know why it went away or how to get it back. Any help appreciated!

Cheers,
Kenny
