Thank you..simply done!!!

The shortcut Win Key + E was going to my computer with all previous versions of windows. Now it goes to home…
Does anybody know how to customize this?

I see nobody has been able to answer this. I will apologize in advance because I also have not found a way, yet, to do exactly what you want. However, I have found a workaround that is sufficient for my needs until we do find the exact answer.

I created a new shortcut on the desktop and put the following command line in it:

%windir%explorer.exe ::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}

I tested it and it works the way I want: opens File Explorer to This PCinstead of Home.

I unpinned the original File Explorer icon from the Task Bar and pinned the new shortcut to the Task Bar.

I placed it as the third icon from the left in the Task Bar so now I just type Win + 3(instead of Win + E; it's physically close to the same key and sort of mnemonic ) to launch File Explorer that opens in This PC. Not perfect but better.

Here is the autohotkey script to rebind Win + E

#NoTrayIcon
#Persistent
#SingleInstance, Force
#e::Run, explorer.exe shell:::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}

Compile with Autohotkey
or
Use my compiled binary from HERE

Run the compiled exe file. Win + E will open This PC.

Go to folder option and select "Open File Explorer to:" to "This PC"

"As of build 9926 (at least - it may have been an earlier build), this is configurable via the GUI.
Open Explorer and go to View-> Options-> General
Change Open File Explorerto This PC"- Taz
