Editing How to Add a Google Shortcut on Your Desktop



Adding a Google shortcut to your desktop can be a convenient way to quickly access Google's search engine and other services. Here are the steps to add a Google shortcut on your desktop:

1. Open your web browser and go to www.google.com.

2. Once you are on the Google homepage, click on the three dots at the top right corner of the screen (for Chrome) or the gear icon (for Firefox).

3. From the dropdown menu, select "More tools" and then "Create shortcut."

4. A pop-up window will appear asking you to name the shortcut. Type in "Google" or any other name you prefer.

5. Select "Open as window" to ensure that the shortcut opens in its own separate window, rather than as a tab in your web browser.

6. Click on "Create" to complete the process.

7. You should now see a Google shortcut icon on your desktop. Double-click on the icon to open the Google search engine in its own window.

That's it! You have successfully added a Google shortcut to your desktop.
