It's a trivial issue I know, I can just create one on the desktop and move it to where I want it. I was just a bit surprised that right-clicking in the OC window in a blank part gave me the normal menu and a "New" option, but it doesn't include Create Shortcut.

Windows context menu there already provides "Create shortcut" option there at the bottom. I have never use "New>Shortcut" from explorer's context menu as it asks you to type the location of the item. Do you use that? Do you copy path first and then use that option and paste the path, or what is the workflow for you?

Oh Jeez, I'm as blind as a bat. How did I not see that. The shame.
Yes, I usually copy the path to the executable and choose New->Shortcut from the Explorer context menu.
Oh man, I should be banned from asking questions on here.

Hehe :) It might have more sense to be up there, but I like to keep standard context menu items where they are in old Explorer's menu as that's where users' "muscle memory" will look for those
