How do I put a copy of my "Favorites" folder on my desktop?

Hi foreverga,

Creating a Shortcut to a Program or File

To create a shortcut on the desktop to a program or file, there are
two possible methods to choose from.
1. Right-click an open area on the desktop, point to New, and then click Shortcut. 
2. Click Browse. 
3. Locate the program or file to which you want to create a shortcut,
click the program or file, click Open, and then click Next.
4. Type a name for the shortcut. If a Finish button appears at the
bottom of the dialog box, click it. If a Next button appears at the
bottom of the dialog box, click it, click the icon you want to use for
the shortcut, and then click Finish.

I have Windows XP. To put a copy of my "Favorites" on my desktop, I
would do the following:

Right-click an open area on the desktop, point to New, and then click Shortcut. 
Click Browse. 
Go to My Computer > Local Disk (C) > Documents and Settings > (My
name) > Favorites. Click OK.
Click Next. Click Finish.


I hope this is helpful. If you have any questions regarding my answer

You can do it in two ways:

I method: Right click on the folder and there you will get a Send to
option, In            that click the option Desktop(Create shortcut).

II method: Select the folder and right click on it and select the
option copy and come to the Desktop, click on the desktop and right
click there and click the paste shortcut option.
