    Instanced Desktop shorcuts

    Two things, one is that the Desktop is actually a folder in C:\Users in File Explorer, can't have 2 or more identical files or shortcuts of the same name. The other is on the right-click of the Taskbar, click Toolbars and put a check on Desktop, will get an item on the Taskbar when clicked will give a list of the shortcuts on the Desktop but will usually be a random list unless maybe the Desktop is sorted by name.

    Windows 10 Keyboard Shorcut to Calculator?

    Option 1

    • File Explorer, type this (shell shortcut) in location bar shell:AppsFolder, right-click Calculator, Create shorcut, Yes
    • Right-click new Calculator shortcut on Desktop, Properties, there is our Shortcut key field/entry!

    Option 2

    • Go to %WinDir%\System32, right-click calc.exe, Create Shortcut, Yes. Then step 2 above

    If I placed the shortcut in %WinDir%\System or Documents it seemingly wouldn't work!? It was flakey even moving back to Desktop, but after I set the shortcut to something else, hit Apply, then back to Ctrl+Shift+C it'd work Can't create shorcut :p

  9. Put "&" in the shorcut name?

    in Windows 10 Support
    Put "&" in the shorcut name?: Here's an interesting (I guess) thing - is there any way to put the "&" symbol into the file/app shortcut name? Windows automatically converts it to the keyboard shortcut indicator and I'd like to avoid that. At the moment whenever the shortcut says e.g. "Tag & Rename"...

    in Windows 10 Performance & Maintenance
    Hotkey shorcuts are very slow: Shortcuts on the desktop with hotkey mapping open very slowly when using hotkey. The same shortcuts open fast if I just double click them.
