Pinning Shortcuts
An easy way to re-find an application on the Start menu is to pin it, either to the Start menu or to the taskbar. If
you pin it to the Start menu, it appears in the upper-left quadrant of the Start menu. If you pin it to the taskbar, it
appears to the right of the Start button. After locating the desired item on the Start menu, but before clicking it to
select it, right-click it. On the menu that appears, choose Pin to Start Menu or Pin to Taskbar.
To place a shortcut on the desktop, minimize all open windows. Open the Start menu, locate the icon you want,
and then hold down the Ctrl key as you drag the application off the Start menu; a copy will be created on the desk-
top. Make sure you hold down Ctrl as you drag; otherwise, the shortcut will be removed from the Start menu.
