How to Add a Website as a Shortcut on your PC Desktop

How to Add a Website as a S...
Now that we’ve gone over how to add a website as a shortcut on your iPhone, maybe you’d like to add it onto your PC desktop as a shortcut. Especially if it’s a site you frequent when using your computer. That way, you won’t have to re-enter the URL every time you open an internet browser. Just like before, we’re going to use the login site for our password manager, Pass Wizard, as an example.

For PC Users using Chrome



  1. Go to the website using Chrome on your PC desktop. Again, we’re going to PassWizard.com/login/ as an example.

  3. Click the three dots in the top right corner. Select ‘More Tools’ and then select ‘Create Shortcut’.

  5. Rename the shortcut to 'Pass Wizard' and click 'Create'.

  7. To customize the desktop icon, save the photo you want to use as an icon file (.ico). An easy way to convert an image file like a .png or .jpg, go to www.freeconvert.com/png-to-ico and choose the image file you’d like to convert. Then, download the icon file. For this example, we’ve used the vault icon from our Pass Wizard Pro plans.

  9. Go back to your desktop background and right click on your newly created desktop icon and click on ‘Properties’. Then click on the ‘Change Icon…’ button and then the ‘Browse…’ button. Select the icon image you’d like to use. If you converted the image file with the above link, the file will likely be in your ‘Downloads’ folder. Click ‘Open’.

  5. Then, click on ‘Start’ in the bottom left of your bottom navigation bar and you’ll see the shortcut at the top under ‘Recently added’. Drag and drop the icon from ‘Start’ to your desktop background. Then, you’ll see it as a desktop shortcut.
