  1. Type “shell:sendto” in RUN dialog box and press Enter. It’ll open “Send To” folder.

    2. Now right-click on blank area in the folder and select “New -> Text document“. It’ll create a text file with the name “New Text Document.txt“. Rename this file and set its name to “Desktop (create shortcut).DeskLink“.

    3. That’s it. Now you’ll get “Desktop (create shortcut)” option back in “Send To” menu.

    NOTE: Make sure “Hide extensions for known file types” option is disabled in “Folder Options“, otherwise the second step might not work and the text file will not convert in desktop shortcut item.  


  2. click on start run and then type in regedit:then follow the next steps

    Check that this key exists HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\ShellNew\NullFile

    If it doesn`t exist,create it.Just right click in the right hand pane of the ShellNew key,

    and select New/String value,then type: NullFile - Similar ideas HERE (http://www.tweakxp.com/article37290.aspx...
