Section 6 - Creating Shortcuts on the Desktop
A shortcut is a pointer to a file, folder or program. Remember,
the key to identifying a shortcut is to look for a small
arrow in the lower left-hand corner of the icon. Creating
shortcuts and placing them on your desktop or adding them
to the Start Menu, enhances your ability to find items easily
without searching the file structure. To create a shortcut
on your desktop, simply right-click over the program or
folder and choose Create shortcut and drag to the desktop.
If you drag the program straight from the
Start menu, make sure you hold down the Control (Ctrl) key.
If you do not hold down the Control key, you will be moving
your shortcut from the Start menu to the desktop.
