If I have downloaded a new program in Windows 8 that comes without an installer, how do I add it to the menu system so that it:
- Appears as an icon in the "Apps by name"
- Is searchable by the friendly name I give it?
Specifically I've downloaded Process Explorer, and I want to be able to bring it up by typing [windows key]
, Process Explorer
instead of having to doctor the system path to include where it actually is and remembering that it is procexp.exe
.
In the old days (Windows 7) I'd create a short cut then add it to either my user's Start Menu tree or the All Users Start Menu tree. But I can't find the equivalent in Windows 8.
(I'm 100% sure this question has been answered somewhere, I just don't know the vocabulary to ask it properly.)
