• How to create a shortcut on the desktop to msn

  I'm doing new Vista loaded as user friendly than our previous XP.  Need help to create a shortcut on the desktop to msn, so everything we need to do is click the butterfly icon to connect.  Also need to know how to download the msn toolbar.  Thank you!

  Hello

  MSN toolbar
  http://www.Microsoft.com/toolbar/

  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.

• How to create a shortcut on the desktop?

  desktop shortcut

  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.

  (c) Paste the link in the shortened window then click Next and type a name for the shortcut.

• Unable to create a shortcut on the desktop

  I am trying to create a shortcut on my desktop to a favorite Web site.  I right click, select new, then shortcut, and nothing happens. This has been a problem for some time, I'm just finally getting around this announcement!  Help, please. (I read on a websit to run a registry cleaner. I tried & nothing has changed)

  Windows 7 Home Premium

  64 bit

  Service Pack 1

  Never, ever use a registry cleaner! At best, they do nothing. At worst, your machine might get screwed up if bad that you would end up having to reload Windows.
   
   
  Save the site in my favorites. Take the favorite and drag it to the desktop. Shortcut created.

• Why the Amazon icon will not appear when you create a shortcut

  When I create a shortcut to a Web site; instead of the web logo, I get the blue standard & green "globe".

  How can I correct this (windows 7)?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You are welcome.

  Shortcuts to sites will initially their own custom icon when you create a shortcut. This icon is called a "favicon.ico" and is stored in the temporary Internet files (TIF) cache, which is where all website files, are stored when you visit them.

  When the user performs a maintenance and removes the TIF cache, all these custom icons are removed with everything else. This will cause the icon of Internet Explorer by default to display on these shortcuts. This also occurs when the maximum allowed disk space has been exceeded and that the files are deleted automatically to maintain the use of disk space.

• When I save a shortcut on the desktop, I have 2 files.

  When I save a shortcut on the desktop, I have 2 files, the short cut and a second, the shortcut "files." If I delete the files, two shortcuts disappeared. Happened only a few months. Does anyone have a solution?

  I've been using Firefox. I click with the right button on the Web page, click Save as and save it on the desktop. I think that its code html in format "page"full Web", only other options are"html only", which translates to lose all the formatting and images,"text files"and"all files ". Thanks for the reply.

  This step must be completed before you can go to the next step in creating an App Store account. It is only for the purpose of verification and just incase accidentally make you an in - app purchase.

  You cannot create an App Store account without card number.
