Do you spend a lot of time using Windows Explorer?
Wouldn’t it be handy if you could start your favorite program right from within the Explorer window?
There’s an easy way to add applications to your Favorites List in Explorer.
We have previously shown you how toadd your own folders to the Favorites listfor quick access to often-used files.
However, you’re free to get around this limitation.
Replace “[user name]” with your account user name, as shown below.
Drag a program shortcut from the Start menu, desktop, or other location to the Links folder.
it’s possible for you to also copy shortcuts and paste them into the Links folder.
The program links are immediately available in the Favorites list in the left pane of the Explorer window.
Simply choose a link in the list to start that program.
it’s possible for you to also sort the Favorites list alphabetically by name.
To do this, right-punch Favorites in the left pane and select Sort by name from the popup menu.
To remove custom program links from the Favorites list, simply delete the appropriate shortcuts from the Links folder.
