Starting Programs from a Shortcut Icon
Another method for starting programs is to create shortcuts for the programs that you use most frequently. These shortcuts can appear as icons on your desktop or on the Quick Launch bar.

To access shortcut icons on the desktop, you have to first clear any open windows out of the way; if a program is maximized, you cannot see the shortcuts.
