Explorer windows (such as Pictures, Music, Documents, Computer) have a Favorite Links pane in the upper-right corner. By default it has a few default folders in it, but might not be the folders you use most often.
To add your own folder to the Favorite Links list, follow these steps:
1. Click Start and then click Documents (or open any Explorer window).
2. Browse to the folder you want to add to your favorites.
3. Drag it to the top of the Favorite Links pane (immediately below where it shows Favorite Links), so that your cursor shows Create link in Links.
Now, you can click the folder in the Favorite Links pane to immediately jump to that folder. You can also drag files or other folders to the shortcut.
You can also navigate to c:\users\”username”\links folder and create your shortcuts there. The shortcuts you create will immediately populate in the favorite links section of windows explorer.
