This article describes how to use and modify the Send To command.
How to Use the Send To Command
In Windows Explorer or My Computer, use the right mouse button to click a
file, point to Send To on the menu that appears, and then click a
destination. The file is sent to or activated by the destination you

add a shortcut to the Windows\SendTo folder. To do so, follow these steps:
- Click the Start button, and then click Run.
- Type "sendto" (without quotation marks) in the Open box, and then
click OK.
- Add a shortcut using either of the following methods:
- Dragging a new shortcut to the folder:
Use the right mouse button to drag a destination to the SendTo
folder, and then click Create Shortcut Here on the menu that
appears.

- On the File menu, point to New, and then click Shortcut.
- Follow the instructions in the Create Shortcut Wizard.
Removing a Shortcut
To remove a shortcut, use the right mouse button to click the shortcut in
the SendTo folder, and then click Delete on the menu that appears.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
