    Add Desktop to Explorer panel


    You know where you have Favourites, Library etc. on the left of explorer windows? (The explorer panel). I want to add Desktop as a stand alone entry. No sub folders, nada. Just a desktop link. Is that possible?

    Yes go to C:\Users\your name\Desktop then click on Include in Library top of explorer by Organize then click on Create new library then move it where you want.

    New Library - Create

    Thanks for the answer Bongo, I already have it in Favourites. Hoping to get it on it's own as it's my usual quick download point for images.

    Try: QTTabBar | Download QTTabBar software for free at SourceForge.net
    It wont do anything for your explorer panel but it will add tabs to the top for any folder you want for quick access. I cant do without it now!
