In "My Computer" navigate to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox.

In the FF folder find the file "firefox.exe.

"Right-click AND hold on the file. Drag the file to the desktop and release. A drop-down panel will be displayed. Left click on "Create Shortcut Here."

You can rename your new shortcut to whatever you want.
