Windows: Adding Your Own Item to the "Send to" Menu

Practice



In the drop-down context menu of the Windows desktop or Explorer, there is a submenu called "Send to". By default, this submenu contains destinations such as a CD drive, the desktop, email, etc.

How can we create such an item ourselves in this menu?

Very simply.

1) Create a shortcut to the object or location you want to send to. For example, if it's a network resource - create a shortcut to that network resource's folder.

2) Open the directory where the "Send to" shortcuts are kept.

for Windows Vista/7 and Windows Server 2008 - the path is:
C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 the path is:
C:\Documents and settings\YOUR_USERNAME\SentTo

3) Copy the shortcut obtained in step 1 into this folder.

That's it - your new destination will appear in the "Send to" item.
