One of the advantages of Microsoft’s Windows 10 Update is the integral of new universal apps into Windows 10’s desktop environment. While they still have the stigma of being scaled up mobile apps wrapped around them, Microsoft has done some work in making sure that they can be accessed and used in the same way as you would any other Windows app.

Now, Universal Windows Apps can be a pinned to your Start Screen and can be opened from there to the taskbar by default,  some users may still prefer pinning them to the desktop for the more popular [but unpopular among techies] wall of icon style look that users of desktop software would have grown accustomed to.

While searching and launching apps from Cortana and/or pinning them to the taskbar is still a much faster way to access your apps,  Windows is all about personal preference and the desktop remains a viable place to place and launch your apps.

Here’s how to pin your Universal Windows Apps to the Desktop

1. Open the Start Screen or Start Menu 2. Pin the required app to the main tile panel of the Start Screen. 3. Using touch, a pen or the mouse, simply drag and drop the app on the desktop. That’s all that’s required. You will now be met with an icon of said app on the desktop.

While unlike traditional Windows apps you aren’t offered the option to create shortcuts on the desktop, turns out that old-fashioned drag and drop works just as well.

When you install a new application in Windows 10, you're often given an option to create a desktop shortcut for it, but there are several other ways to create a desktop shortcut, too.

Shortcuts on your desktop are a convenient way to use your computer. In this article, you'll learn how to add Windows 10 desktop shortcuts to access applications, navigate to a website quickly, or open a file buried somewhere in My Documents. d

1. Select the Windows icon to open the Start Menu.

2. In the app list, select and drag any application to your desktop.

3. Windows creates a shortcut to the application without removing the app from the Start Menu.

If you're a little more tech-savvy or maybe you forgot to add a Start Menu item for the application when you installed it, you can create a desktop shortcut for it through File Explorer.

1. Open File Explorer as you normally would, or press Windows+E.

2. Navigate to C:/ > Program Files.

3. Open the folder for the application you want to create a shortcut for. In this example, we're creating one for Notepad++.

4. Find the .exe file for the application. Here, it's notepad++.exe. 

5. Right-click the .exe file and select Send to > Desktop [create shortcut].

6. Your shortcut is created and added to your desktop.

1. Press Windows+E to open File Explorer.

2. Right-click the file or folder name.

3. Select Create shortcut.

4. Windows creates a shortcut in the same folder as the original file or folder.

5. Select and drag, or copy and paste, the shortcut to your desktop.

In the previous methods, you created desktop shortcuts using the right-click menu and keyboard shortcuts. Here, we'll explain how to create them using the File Explorer menus

1. Press Windows+E to open File Explorer.

2. Navigate to the location of the file or folder you wish to create a shortcut for.

7. Type a name for the shortcut, then select Finish. Your shortcut is created.

8. Select and drag the shortcut to your desktop and you're done.
