Hi @MrC7,

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

I understand you are trying to create a shortcut for HP Easy Start on your desktop in Windows 11, follow these steps:

Find HP Easy Start in the Start Menu:

• Click the Start button or press the Windows key on your keyboard.
• Type "HP Easy Start" in the search bar.

Create a Desktop Shortcut:

• Once you see HP Easy Start in the search results, right-click on it.
• Select Open file location. This will take you to the folder where the HP Easy Start executable is located.
• In the folder, right-click on HP Easy Start and choose Create shortcut. This will create a shortcut in the same folder.
• Drag the newly created shortcut to your desktop.

Verify the Shortcut:

• Go to your desktop, and you should see the HP Easy Start icon. Double-click it to open the application.

No it doesn't work???   Typing it into the search bar only produces many things that point to a web page???   Nothing guides me the "open file location" on my computer????????   Even right clicking on my desktop > new > create short cut > does not guide me to any hp smart file location????  Hp needs to fix this mess!

Open file location is nowhere to be found????????

Pardon my ignorance but righopen t clicking on the hp smart icon in my start menu, does not produce the option of "Open File Location"???  Simply not there???? Please direct me to someone that can tell me how to place this shortcut on my desktop!!  Thank You in advance!
