    How can I create shortcut microsoft apps into desktop using screen reader

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    I do not know the capabilities of the Jaws or NVDA software, but the process to create a Desktop icon are these steps

    On the Start Menu, select 'Show All Apps

    That will show the long alphabetical list of installed apps

    Find the app in that list, then drag it onto your Desktop to create a new Desktop shortcut.

    If you are unable to perform those steps using your Jaws or NVDA software, because Community is just a user to user forum, the best option would be to open the Feedback Hub (Windows Key + F) and report this lack of accessibility to their developers.
