Add Computer Management to the XP
Desktop
Unlike previous Windows
versions, XP takes a minimalist approach to icons on the desktop.
The single, default icon a new installation places is Recycle Bin. I
certainly don’t like a cluttered desktop so that suits me fine, but
one icon I do find indispensable is Computer Management.
[Start] [Control
Panel] [Performance and Maintenance] [Administrative Tools]
Right-Click [Computer Management] then drag and release it over an
empty part of the desktop, selecting [Create Shortcut Here] in the
context menu that opens.
Alternatively, you can
use the [Copy] and [Paste] commands rather than dragging and
dropping to create the shortcut.
Either method can be
used to create shortcuts virtually anywhere once you locate the
target file for the desired shortcut.
