    Create Ethernet adapter shortcut on the desktop.

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    To create the Ethernet shortcut on your desktop, you can follow the step provided below.



    Step: Create Ethernet shortcut on the desktop.



    1. Press Windows + R key on your keyboard together.
    2. Type in ncpa.cpl
      and hit enter.
    3. You will see all your network adapter.
    4. Right click on your desired adapter and click on
      Create Shortcut and allow the prompt.
    5. Or you can drag and drop the network adapter on the desktop that will create a shortcut too.
    6. You can now right on the shortcut on your desktop and disable and enable internet connection.

    Desktop ethernet shortcut

    I have created a shortcut on my desktop after installing windows 10 Pro.

    The shortcut is for the ethernet. When I right click it you are able to disable the connection but when you right click to enable it the option is not there it still shows disable and the connection is already disable

    Any suggestion would be gratefully received.
