That is how I spend most of my time. When will VB6 programmers realise that Asp.Net VB is a totally different animal?
And why are they using VB anyway?
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

NASA better brace for the inevitable flood of Welsh astronaut applicants.

Anybody got any idea on how to create a working shortcut to MS Edge?
I ran it, ran Task Manager, found MicrosoftEdge.exe, went to containing folder, found the .exe, put a shortcut to it on the desktop, double-clicked - and - nothing, zilch, nada!

If it is the default browser, any URL would do
Otherwise, create a batch-file - it must be somewhere on the path.

Chrome is my default, and I'm damned if I am going to create a batch file for it - let it go hang!
|
|
|
|

I noticed lot of web sites seem to think Edge is Chrome.
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

Find it on the start menu, click and and drag it over to the desktop.
|
|
|
|
|
Hmm... - that worked, but I tried that first using a right-click drag, and it didn't work. I didn't want to move it, just get a shortcut. It also locked up the desktop for about 2 minutes.
|
|
|
|
|
You could try to move it back to the start menu and then drag to the desktop while holding CTRL pressed.
No idea if this will do or not... but...

I just grabbed it with a left click (actually a one-and-a-half tap on my touchpad) and dragged it and it worked perfectly.
|
|
|
|
|
So it did with me - eventually. It also left the original in place, which is what I wanted. But why no left-click drag? Weird!

Sorry - my mistake. I meant right-click drag, which is what I have always used until Win10.
