Create a desktop shortcut Of Windows registry editor (regedit)
If you are like me and always accessing the window registry to edit it , then you really need this shortcut on the desktop.

The usual way to get into the registry editor is to go to the start menu, open the run dialog box, then type in regedit, and finally press enter. Why would you do all that when you can simply click on a icon on your desktop or even have the registry editor icon in the quick launch toolbar.
Here's how to create a desktop shortcut to open the registry editor:

Go to the blank desktop and right click for a menu to appear.
Choose New from the menu.
Then choose shortcut.
Now we need to type an item location or browse for one.
Type regedit and then press nest.
Now type a name that you want to call the shortcut. For example regedit.
Then press finish and your shortcut to the registry editor will be on the desktop.
