Every millennial I know, knows how to use a computer.

I graduated high school class of 2005 in a random rural high school in North Carolina. Everyone in my graduating class knows how to navigate a file system, ie knows how to find homework.txt in My Documents/Homework, can type an essay in MS Word and could do a simple invoice or something in Excel. I don't think they even offered programming classes, and I don't think I met anyone who took CAD drafting or whatever, not until college.

If you mean "point and click" level of proficiency, sure.

I have no idea what level of proficiency you had in mind.
