  1. How do I create a shortcut that executes multiple tasks at once? Display and sound source...


    I'm trying to figure out how I could create a shortcut that could quickly change my display to source #2 and disable my "speakers" aka Realtek Audio, which would default my sound source to my TV speakers, and run a few .exe's. Is there a way to create a shortcut that could automate all of these tasks so that I don't have to do each individually each time I want to switch displays?I'm using Windows 10 HE 64 bit.

    :)

  3. create a single shortcut to multiple computers

    More details required, i.e.

    • Is it a single file or multiple files? Or whole folders?
    • Same files each time?
    • Same files for each PC?
    • Same share names on each PC?
    • Do you know their NetBIOS names?

    Create desktop shortcuts to websites with Edge

    If I'm shopping away in IE and create a shortcut to that webpage on the desktop from IE, if I haven't cleared my cache, it remembers the stuff in my cart for the IE shortcut (for as long as the cookie is good, not just a shopping cart but other similar pages).
    I can't do this in Edge unless I create a Favorite for it IN Edge. Then there is no nice quick link from my desktop, I have to open Edge and select the Favorite. Used this many times with IE desktop links when Black Friday shopping.

    Point is it's annoying because Microsoft wants Edge to be the default browser but then the Microsoft employee on here responds with the suggestion to send it to IE to create a Desktop shortcut. I'm using Edge on my Android phone and I can send a shortcut
    for a webpage to the Android Launcher - but I can't do the same with Edge on my Windows 10 computer?

    It is a very basic task that should not require multiple steps of opening another application to create a desktop shortcut is the point I think of the OP.
