Does anyone know how I can put  a "documents" icon on my desktop?  I have tried searching the web and can't find any information on how to do it.  I would really appreciate any help from anyone.  Thank you in advance.  Terra

Assuming you are using Windows, search for "desktop shortcut". 

 

In short, right click on your mouse anywhere in your desktop, and choose new shortcut.  You have to browse over (tell the computer where to look) to the folder named Documents on your hard drive.

That sounds like too much work. Just right click on documents go down to send to & click on desktop (create shortcut). LOL!!! DH hates it when I do something different then how he does it. We all have our ways of getting the job done. Which ever you find easier for you.
