Windows 10 Operating System _ Desktop Shortcut or Desktop Icon for our favorite   Software/Application Software

MICROSOFT Copilot Answer

Got it, Norizan! Let’s walk through how you can create a Desktop shortcut icon for your favorite apps like FileZilla Server. I’ll keep it step‑by‑step so it’s crystal clear:

🖥️ Steps to Create a Desktop Shortcut

1. Locate the app

   • Open the folder where FileZilla Server is installed.

   • By default, it’s usually in: C:\Program Files\FileZilla Server\ or C:\Program Files (x86)\FileZilla Server\.

2. Find the executable

   • Look for the main program file, typically named FileZilla Server.exe.

3. Right‑click the file

   • Choose Send to → Desktop (create shortcut).

   • This instantly places a shortcut icon on your Desktop.

4. Rename the shortcut

   • On your Desktop, right‑click the new shortcut → Rename.

   • Give it a friendly name like FileZilla Server.

5. Customize the icon

   • Right‑click the shortcut → Properties → Change Icon.

   • You can pick from Windows’ built‑in icons or browse for a custom .ico file.

💡 Extra tip: If you want multiple shortcuts (e.g., one for FileZilla Server and one for FileZilla Client), just repeat the same process for each app’s .exe file.

Would you like me to also show you how to pin FileZilla Server to the Taskbar or Start Menu for even faster access, or keep it strictly to Desktop icons?
