    Start Menu Shortcut

    What ho one and all,

    With age, I cannot recall how to do something pretty fundamental!!! running W7 and cannot get a shortcut to a newly installed program, onto the Start menu

    Googling suggests, right click and drag the s/c to the start button, but all I see is a black circle with a diagonal bar, cannot do it.

    Seem to recall there was a start menu option, where I could select the relevant *.exe file, then drag it to any section of the menu, but where is it.

    Grateful for a memory jog. Thanks and toodle pip

    Right click the .exe file, choose "pin to start menu".

    Thank you, that is working. it was not working yesterday, hence the post. I suspect that the turn it off / turn it on reset the drag/drop function to the start menu.

    Again, thanks and Happy Star Wars Day!
