How to create a toolbar of shortcuts on the desktop

Hello...
How to create a toolbar of shortcuts on the desktop

Unfortunately, this feature is no longer available with Windows 7. I was surprised myself so since Vista was fine with it, but in Windows 7, we all need to just get used to using the feature of the taskbar QuickLaunch. You can pin any icon you want in the taskbar and use it to your quick launch of this program.

    Loading of the toolbar can make the icon.

    If you wish to make your homepage of MSN, and then when IE is started it will take you to MSN.

    You can also make MSN Favorites page in IE - then go to your Favorites - right-click on the favorite MSN
    then go to the desktop - Right Click and PASTE the SHORTCUT.

    I hope this helps.

    where can I get the shortcut on the desktop

    I might have misunderstood your question entirely.

    A longer sentence with a development could avoid this.

    With nothing good to go on, my answer would be... you must create it.

    Example: create a shortcut on the desktop of Windows Media Player...

    Start button > all programs > scroll down the list to find Windows Media Player > right click it > click send to > select desktop (create shortcut).

    A Windows Media Player shortcut is now on your desktop.

  • How to create a shortcut on the desktop to a Notepad document?

    I have something written down in Notepad and you want to create a link to that on the desktop

    Not sure if I understand the problem. But here's a response to just about anything if you do a RIGHT CLICK you get a MENU list and there you should find "create shortcut". Make a LEFT CLICK and you should see it appear in the folder your in. Then if you RIGHT click ON the shortcut you can 'COPY' or 'CUT' and then do a RIGHT CLICK and 'PASTE' anywhere.

    Good luck

  • How can I put a GMail shortcut on my desktop?

    I'm trying to put a shortcut to Gmail on my desktop and can not find the place where or how to do it. Any ideas?

    https://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/creating+a+desktop+shortcut+to+a+Web+page

    You can drag the favorite icon on the left end of the address bar on the desktop to create a shortcut.
    If you create an internet shortcut in this way this shortcut then gets the icon of the default browser.
    If you want a different icon (favicon) then you must assign you this icon for the shortcut on the desktop (right click: properties).
    You can usually get the favorite icon if you add 'favicon.ico' to the main area of a website (for example http://www.mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display favorite icon in a tab and save this image to a folder or see if you can find it in "tools > Page Info > media.

  • How to add a shortcut on the desktop for streets & trips 2013 for windows 7

    Just installed MS streets and trips 2013, I do not see anywhere how to send a shortcut on the desktop. Tried to do a right click on the programs, but this option is not started.

    I don't have the application under test, but normally you right click on the exe programs (or registering in the program menu) and either "create shortcut" or "send to" and then "desktop".

    If the options are not there, your office, do new right click - shortcut, find your exe file of programs (the actual file you want to run) and and we should end up with a shortcut on your desktop to your program. (hopefully :-))

    Hi subhshy001,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Windows answers Forum community!

    Try this if you do not have

    Windows Explorer to create the folders and shortcuts in your document folder, drag and drop them on your desktop.

    If you have completed the steps and was not even useful,

    Follow these steps:

    Try to create a shortcut and sending it on the desktop.

    (1) open: Start Menu ,.
    (2) right-click: Internet Explorer icon .
    (3) select: send to > desktop (create shortcut).

    There should be a shortcut on the desktop .

    Make sure that the "show desktop icon" has a check against it

    OR

    Just click on the empty part of the desktop, choose new > then select the folder to create. Right click on this folder , select Rename it.

    If the steps above do not work then:

    You can scan your computer for malware.

    You can download, install and update anti-malware free of your favorite search engine and find malware.

    If the scan comes back clean, so I recommend doing a System File Checker too l to analyze your OS system files.

    To help resolve this problem, use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open an elevated command prompt . To do this, click Start , click principally made programs , Accessories , right-click guest , and then click run as administrator .  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow .
    2. type the following command and press ENTER: sfc/scannow (Yes there is a space after sfc) the sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions. This analysis do take some time to complete.
