Add Website Shortcuts on Windows Desktop with Chrome
More Information on Creating Chrome ShortcutsThe above method isn't the only way to make shortcuts that open in Chrome. Another way is to simply drag and drop a link straight to the folder of your choice. For example, while on this page, just put your mouse up to the URL area and highlight the whole link, and then click+hold+drag the link to a folder on your computer.
Another way to create website shortcuts on your desktop in Windows is to right-click the desktop and choose New > Shortcut. Enter the URL you want to open when you double-click or double-tap the shortcut, and then name it appropriately.
You can also drag a shortcut from the desktop and drop it right onto the Windows taskbar so that you can have even quicker access to it.
Note: If none of the methods on this page are working to open the link in Chrome, you might need to change what Windows sees as the default browser. See How to Change the Default Browser in Windows if you need help.
