I don't have the Dutch edition, and I don't know what browser you're using.
But I'm able to copy Internet Explorer favorites to the desktop using all of
the following methods:



-Drag the Favorite icon from the Favorites Center onto the desktop.



-Right-click the icon in the Favorites Center and choose Copy. Then
right-click the desktop and choose Paste.



-Browse to the page and choose File > Send > Shortcut to Desktop.



-Click the Start button, click Favorites, right-click the shortcut icon and
choose Send To > Desktop (create shortcut).



Maybe one of those methods will work for you, don't know. If not, please
mention what happens when you try.

Well that's what i do (its IE7 btw). None of the methodes work. That is,
there is no new icon visible on the desktop...

Using Windows Explorer, are you able to put a favorite in the folder
C:\Users\(YOUR USER NAME)\Desktop? Do any favorites you have tried to put
on your desktop in the past show up there?
