Thanks much for everyone's help. As I said, I did find it in the recycle bin. How it got there, I don't know. Anyway it's back and all is working well. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene" <gsasner@xxxxxxxxx>

It appears the desktop create shortcut item is no longer available on your machine. If you are using XP, see this article on how to add locations to the desktop. If you have further questions, ask here.

hello there;

another way to do this is,

1, local C-drive, enter,

2, p=programs, enter,

3, w=windows live messenger, enter,

4, you should see, installer, one of two, arrow to messenger, press enter.

5, now you need to look for,

msnmsgr.exe

press applications key, arrow to, send-to,sub-menu, right arrow, now, down arrow until you hear, desktop, create shortcut.

note, you will need to change/edit the newly created icon.
however, the previous way should have worked.

I tried that, but these are the only choices I see when opening that selection.
Compressed (zipped) Folder
Mail Recipient
My Documents
3½ Floppy (A:)
DVD/CD-RW Drive (D:)

I thought that was how you add an item to, but the desktop seems to be missing. There is a choice called create shortcut, but how do I create it on the desktop? ----- Original Message ----- From: "david whitehead" <d.h.whitehead@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

hello try the following;

1, start menu,

2, p=programs,

3, arrow to windows live messenger,

4, press applications key, down arrow until you hear, send-to,-sub-menu, right arrow to open,

5, down arrow until you hear,
desktop create shortcut, press enter.

note, when you go back to your desktop, and look for the icon, it may say, shortcut to windows live messenger.

if this is the case, you can edit the name, by pressing the f2 key, and removing the words, shortcut to, hope this helps.

Okay, I must be having a senior moment or something. I am trying to put a shortcut to Windows Live Messenger on my desktop. How do I go about doing that?

Thanks much.
