Computer icon

A computer icon refers to the small picture on a desktop or laptop screen, that is used as a link or shortcut to open a program, folder, or navigate to a location in the PC.
The icons are usually an intuitive image of the game, applications, or folder they represent. Additionally, there is a name displayed below, for better identification.
Icons were not developed at the same time with computers, but later. The first one that was based on GUI (graphical user interface) appeared in 1981.
