Quick Launch

How do I create a quick launch, I have favorites on my desktop, but I want to put then into a quick launch if I can.

  • Make sure you've enabled quicklaunch toolbar, then just drag you're shortcuts onto it, if you run out of space, right click on th quicklaunch bar and unlock it and then move the slider along to create more space

    On XP, right click the taskbar at the bottom, Toolbars is where the quick launches are stored, you can create new ones, and to open them in a folder view to easily organise the contents, right click the toolbar / quick launch name and choose open folder.

    They are usually stored in: C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Start Menu\

    OK, almost sorted, one question, how do I add OE to quick launch, I've had a look under File within OE, there's nothing listed for "Save As"

    Copy and paste your current shortcut of OE into the quick launch (might be on the desktop or in the start menu), or you can make a new one by finding the application in the Program Files folder, right-clicking and creating a shortcut.
