How to create website shortcuts on the desktop / in a folder using Chrome?
One possible way:
- Click the Wrench symbol and choose Bookmarks - Always show bookmarks bar
- Navigate to the webpage you want to create the shortcut for
- right click the bookmark bar and choose Add Page and create a bookmark in the bookmark bar
- (alternatively, you can just drag-and-drop the favicon into the bookmark bar, which creates a bookmark for the current page)
- Drag and drop the bookmark onto the desktop. This will create a shortcut to the webpage on your desktop
This is by far the easier way....
Go to the webpage you want to add to your desktop
Click the menu button in the top right corner and go to more tools
Click add to desktop....
Done!
Open the site you wish to have a shortcut to. Restore the page down. Just to the left of the url there is a little icon, drag it to your desktop, job done! Now you can put it wherever you like. I was using Firefox as the main browser and I think it will work on most, if not all browsers.
