    I don't have the Dutch edition, and I don't know what browser you're using. But I'm able to copy Internet Explorer favorites to the desktop using all of the following methods:Drag the Favorite icon from the Favorites Center onto the desktop.Rightclick the icon in the Favorites Center and choose Copy. Then rightclick the desktop and choose Paste.Browse to the page and choose File > Send > Shortcut to Desktop.Click the Start button, click Favorites, rightclick the shortcut icon and choose Send To > Desktop (create shortcut).Maybe one of those methods will work for you, don't know. If not, please mention what happens when you try.Maybe one of those methods will work for you, don't know."Jeroen van Beek"

    Well that's what i do (its IE7 btw). None of the methodes work. That is, there is no new icon visible on the desktop...Jeroen "Puppy Breath" schreef in bericht

    Using Windows Explorer, are you able to put a favorite in the folder C:\Users\(YOUR USER NAME)\Desktop? Do any favorites you have tried to put on your desktop in the past show up there? "Jeroen van Beek"

    Have you moved your "User" files someplace besides their default? "Jeroen van Beek"
