    How to use Win+X Menu Editor


    Hi guys,

    Does anyone know how this works??

    I have downloaded this utility, but I am unsure how to use it.

    I would like to add a "Recent Items" entry to my Win+X menu, using the path:-
    %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\

    However I can't figure how this is accomplished?

    Any Help?

    :)

    for third party apps/programs you would be better asking the software supplier - in this case WinAero

    How to use Win+X Menu Editor

    Hi, this works for me.
    Here I use the desktop as an example- could be any folder.
    1. Create shortcut on desktop to your desired program
    2. Launch Winaero's editor
    3. Click Add a program
    4. Click Add a program
    5. Browse to your shortcut and click on it
    6. Click Open
    7. Click Restart Explorer
    8. Press Windows key + X and look for your new entry.
