I have been trying to create shortcuts on my desktop and in my documents
folder as well.
To try and create a shortcut I right click the mouse and go to new and then
shortcut.
.... nothing happens.
I have been using computers now for over five years and I have attained
quite a bit of knowledge in that time, but this is the first time this sort
of thing has happened to me and I am stumped.
So any help would be great.
