    MSIE History Folder Shortcut on my desktop?


    When using XP, I was able to put the subject shortcut on my desktop by referencing the real History folder in its location: {C:\Documents and Settings\Local Settings}. But, I can't seem to find it in this Win7 world?

    Can anyone help me find it?

    Thanks,

    Start creating a shortcut as usual: Rightclick - New - Shortcut - but in Location field paste the following line:
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\History
    Next - Finish.
