Bookmarks or favorites are one of the best things ever invented, as they allow us to save the web pages we visit most often. Thanks to this feature, we don't have to type the entire web address of the pages we regularly visit again. But over time, and especially if we visit them more frequently than usual, as is the case with the Windows News blog, the bookmarks option might not be the fastest, and we might look for a way to speed up the process. The best option is to add a link to the web page either to our PC's desktop or to the Start menu, so that with just a couple of clicks we can visit it without having to open the browser.
There is no need to open the browser, as the system will automatically run the browser that is configured by default for this purpose, whether it is Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Opera or others.
Add a web link to the start menu
- First of all we must go to the web page from which we want to create the web link. If we know it by heart, it is not necessary to go to the browser.
- Then we go to the desktop of our PC and press on the right button.
- select New> Shortcut and we enter the web page in question and click on Accept.
- In the next step we have to place ourselves on top of the icon that we have created and click on the right button.
- In the drop-down menu, click on the option Anchor to Home, so that this web link is still within the start menu.
If, on the other hand, we only want to leave the link to the web page on the desktop, we should omit steps 4 to 5 , since the steps necessary to move the newly created shortcut to the start menu are not included.
