    Description

      I created registry keys for hiding icons from the desktop. All icons have disappeared, except "My computer". The key does not affect it.

      Since CORE-3567 is now implemented, this can be reproduced by just disabling "My Computer" icon in the Display properties / Desktop icon settings.

      The CDesktopViewCallback is responsible for filtering it from the view by handling the IncludeObject query to return S_FALSE. The enumerator always shows My Computer.

      This is why it's not possible to hide My Computer icon from desktop.

      See https://github.com/reactos/reactos/blob/11a71418d50f48ff0e10d2dbbe243afaf34c4368/dll/win32/shell32/folders/CDesktopFolder.cpp#L39
