K Ken Blake, MVP Nov 24, 2008 #5 1. Browse to the exe file for the installed program, right click on it, and select "Send to" then "Desktop (create shortcut)." Or 2. In an open area of the desktop, right click and select "New" then "Shortcut." Follow the directions in the Wizard. Click to expand... or 3. (what I usually do) Right drag the exe file to the desktop. When you release the mouse button, choose "Create shortcut here."
