Unfortuately, I think right now you are stuck with what you are doing.

After you have finished your rebuild:

Look for a folder in your Windows directory called "Favorites". It should
contain a bunch of shortcuts.
Copy the entire folder to a floppy disc, and update it as needed.
When you need to reinstall your OS, you can overwrite the newly installed
favorites directory with the back up version.
