Simply browsing to your desktop in Explorer, right-clicking Favorites in the sidebar on the left, and then selecting Add current location [...] should do the trick.

  • In the Explorer window you took a screenshot of, Favorites is listed in de sidebar. Right click that.

  • Well, if you're right-clicking your desktop, you didn't browse to it.

Can you see the Star favorites. You just search the desktop icon and drag the same to your favorites. It will appear in the list.
