In Windows, a shortcut is an icon used to represent a document, folder, or program file. You can open a file or launch an application by clicking the icon. Shortcuts are particularly useful because you can put them on your desktop or in the Start menu without having to make a copy of the actual file itself. This saves space by allowing you to keep a single copy of a large program file, while placing one or more shortcuts to the file wherever they are convenient.
To create a desktop shortcut:
Right-click the location where you want the new shortcut to appear (this will be a space on your desktop) From the menu that appears, select New and then Shortcut Enter the path of the file, folder, or application for which you want to make a shortcut, or click the Browse... button to locate it. For the server this is c:/program files/tradar/tradarserver.exe For the client this is c:/program files/tradar/tradarclient.exe |
Click OK to select the target of the shortcut
Click Next, then Finish.
