Creating an Internet Shortcut to the desktop just like Internet Explorer.

Hi!

I am running FF24 and would like to create a shortcut of a website to the desktop just like Internet Explorer. I have read a solution that has me resizing FF and feel that it is clumsy and unproductive.

Does anyone know of an Add-On to this great feature in IE? Not only for Windows XP but for 7 & 8, as well.

Surprised that the smarties at Mozilla did not put any thought into this.

TIA :)

Fixed it.... under XP.

But it will not work in Windows 7, 64 bit.

Is there another up-to-date Add-On for that OS?

Thanks :)

I guess since an add-on has existed for this since 2004, no one felt it was urgent to build it into the product...

Hi jscher2000,

Thanks for your timely response!

I installed and configured it, double checked settings, but it does not create anything on the desktop in XP. Very strange.

Any suggestions welcome.

Cheers,

Compumind :)

Not sure why it can't set the path on Windows 7. Do you get an error message? Can you manually set the path using the symbolic shortcut: 

%userprofile%\Desktop
