Optimize ‘Send To’ Sub-Menu In XP/Vista As Per Your Requirements

When you right-click one any file/folder than a menu pops up which displays variety of options. One of them is ‘Send To’ which helps you send the file to some other location in your computer. Mostly you must have used this option while creating shortcuts on the desktop and other options are almost always untouched.

You can now optimize the sub-menu so that you can directly send the respective file to your personal desired location. Here are the steps to follow:

For Windows Vista follow this path:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

where username is your username.

In Windows XP follow this path:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\SendTo

where username is your username.

When you reach the above mentioned path you will find there the shortcuts to places which you saw in your ‘Send To’ sub-menu.

To remove an option from the sub-menu delete the respective shortcut icon.

To add an option to the sub-menu just add the shortcut to that particular folder to the opened path and the changes will take effect immediately!

Now it is totally up to your sleeping genius to think so as to make the tiny sub-menu productive.
