We have previously seen how to create a keyboard shortcut to open any installed application in Windows and also how to create custom desktop shortcut for various activities like locking the PC.
I often use keyboard shortcuts to do different computation in Office applications and also use keyboard shortcut to open My Computer. Apart from these I usually keep my most frequently opened folders in my dock. But this tutorial will help to create a keyboard shortcut to open any folder in Vista.
Right click the folder that you want to create a keyboard shortcut and click Send To and Desktop (Create Shortcut)
Now go to the desktop and right click the shortcut that was created.
Click Properties.
Now in the Shortcut Key box, use the keyboard shortcut that you want to use. For example, for the LyteByte folder, I have used Ctrl + Alt + L
Click Ok. Now you can use this newly created shortcut at all times to open that folder.
You can also setup Shortcuts to Folders in Favorite Links in the Vista Windows Explorer Sidebar.
