Create Shortcut to Folder Options Window

Depending on the type of work you do it's often convenient to have a shortcut to the Folder Options Window.

Create Shortcut

* Right click an open area of the Desktop
* Select New Shortcut
* Type "control folders" as shown in Fig. 01 and click the Next button.

* Name the shortcut. I used Folder Options Window as shown in Fig. 02. Click the Finish Button.

* Shown on the left In Fig. 03 is the standard shortcut that will be created. In the center is the same shortcut with a different icon that can be changed by right clicking and selecting Properties Change Icon... button Shortcut tab. Don't forget that you can use TweakUI to get rid of the little arrow in the lower left corner that signifies a shortcut, as shown on the right.

* Place the shortcut wherever it's convenient. I like a clean desktop so I place mine in Quick Launch on Taskbar.
