Adding Notepad to Send To


Create a shortcut to notepad.exe in the \Windows\SendTo Folder:



  1. Click Start, Select Programs and start Windows Explorer

  2. Select the \Windows\SendTo Folder

  3. Right-click an empty space in the folder, and from the context menu choose
    New > Shortcut

  4. In the Create Shortcut window, enter C:\Windows\Notepad.exe
    in the Command line box


Note: If you installed windows in another directory, or on another
drive, you'll have to replace the C:\Windows\ with the correct path



  1. Press Next

  2. We suggest removing the .exe from Notepad.exe in the
    Select a name for the shortcut
    box

  3. Press Finish


Then you will have the option to view file contents by right-clicking on the
file and "sending" it to Notepad.
