I have just switched from Internet Explorer 11 to Google Chrome as my browser; I use
Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium as my operating system.
But how do I create a shortcut?
With IE11 I just right-clicked on the target webpage and it was there as an option.
With Google I don't seem to have that option.

click on the star in the url address bar and that will give the option of the favourite shortcut and where you want to save it = ie on bookmark bar or within folders on the book mark bar

What I want is the shortcut to appear as an "app" (if that is the correct word) on the screen.
We have about 40 of them there, so when we switch on the PC (is a desktop) they are
all there to be seen. So all we have to do is then click on the one we wish to connect to, and it
connects.
Sorry I'm a bit lacking in computer skills etc, so please bear with me!
Thanks
Amos.

The correct word is 'desktop shortcut'

In Chrome ...
On the page you want to 'save'
top right corner, three little dots ... 'click'
scroll down to 'more tools' and a sub-menu will open ...
click on 'add to desktop'

Then, Robert is your father's brother ... :lol:
