On one PC now I can't do that. I can drag it, but it does not make a
shortcut on the desktop. It just shows the SM icon with no shortcut
arrow. That means I can't change it's icon. Any ideas?
I finally solved this issue. First I did uninstall SM to see if that
would do it. It didn't fix it. I then looked at file associations for
URL files in this PC and my other ones. This PC showed SM for URL
files, while my other PC's showed Internet Browser.
SM did look right to me, but I changed it to Internet Browser to match
my other PC's. That was the solution - it changed things right away,
so now I can drag from SM to my desktop to make an internet shortcut.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
PERFECT !
Just a question: I am interested to look at my pc about "file
associations for URL files" - Where precisely is located this parameter
? Telle me the steps to find this parameter ...
Here are two ways that work in Windows 7:
1) Click "Start" or press the Windows key on your keyboard, choose
"Default Programs." Or navigate to \Control Panel\All Control Panel
Items\Default Programs. In both cases, the second option is "Associate a
file type or protocol with a program."
2) In a Windows Explorer window, find a file with the relevant
extension, right-click it, and choose "Open with... Choose default program."
I suspect other versions of Windows may also offer these methods, but I
can't say definitively which do and which don't.
As for "URL files," you won't find any. But if you associate things like
.htm and .html with your preferred browser, that should take care of it.
