For those who have implemented the suggestion in post 5125 on this thread, here’s some additional special shortcuts.
RJL gave us Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} for a Control Panel shortcut.
The same works for Recycle.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} to give us a Recycle Bin shortcut.
A My Computer shortcut is a bit different. In Explorer highlight the location to put the shortcut and Click File/New/Shortcut. In the Command box, type the following command:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /root,,/select,c:
[The only space is placed between EXE and /root]
Click the Next button.
The default name will be Explorer. Change this name to My Computer.
Select an icon from the choices given and click Finish.
You will now have three shortcuts, My Computer, Recycle Bin, and Control Panel. They will be like all other shortcuts, permitting you to rename them, relocate them to any folder, put them in the Start Menu tree, or delete them.
Cheers, PW. |
