Loose the Start Menu
First atual post:
Here’s a time saver. It saves me about 0.75 seconds about a hundred times a day, and adds predictability and control to the office experience. What it does, is letting you run your programs with keyboard short cuts. Setup time is about 4 minutes.
- Create the folder c:\PATH (or something similar)
- Right-click the my-computer icon, and choose properties
- Select the Advanced tab and click Environment Variables.
- Add’;c:\PATH;‘ to the end of the Path environment variable in the System variables group.
- Add shortcuts to your favourite items in the path folder. These should have simple and short names.
- DONE! -You no longer need the start-menu.
Now you can run the shortcuts just by typing [Windows]+R, and filling the run-dialog with the name of the shortcut you put in the c:\path folder. I recommend putting a shortcut to the c:\path folder in the folder itself. This way it will be easy to add shortcuts.
