How to Make a Shortcut
Edited
A shortcut, in Windows, is a link to a file or folder that you can place on the desktop or in a Start menu folder. When you click a shortcut, the file or folder that it points to opens.
You can tell that a file or folder is a shortcut because it has a small arrow on its icon. The arrow points to the file or folder that the shortcut points to.
You can make a shortcut in a few simple steps:

Drag the shortcut to your desktop or to a folder in the Start menu.
