Since a few days i cannot find the option "send to desktop" in the
contextmenu ...it`s just gone.
In the map "send to" where normaly the icon desktop(make
shortcut-DESLINK-file) is, there is nothing to be found!
In the register i can make some changes to restore this (if I have read it
good on the internet) but i don`t no where and with wich key....

Thx in advance

Click to expand...

First off, in order to see the SendTo folder you must go to
Control Panel -> Folder Options and make the appropriate
changes on the View page.

If you've done that already, look in this folder for a copy of
the Desktop (create shortcut) icon.

C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\SendTo

If it's present, you can copy it to the SendTo folder for your
account. This folder should be something like this.

C:\Documents and Settings\YOURACCOUNT\SendTo

If that doesn't work, you might want to download and run the
script available from this site to see if it fixes the problem.
