No Shortcut to Favorites Folder in "Save Web Page" Dialog Box
This article was previously published under Q296300
When you save a Web page in Internet Explorer, you are unable to find a shortcut to your Favorites folder.
You expect a shortcut to the Favorites folder to appear in the Save Web Page dialog box.
To work around this issue, save the Web page to the My Documents folder, and then create a shortcut to it in the Favorites folder:
- Start Internet Explorer and browse to the desired Web page.
- On the File menu, click Save As.
- In the Save Web Page dialog box, in the File name box, type the name that you want (such as My Saved Web Page), and then in the Save in list, click My Documents, and then click Save.
- On the File menu, click Open.
- In the Open dialog box, click Browse.
- In the Look in list, click My Documents, and then double-click the _files folder that has the name that you typed in step 3. For example My Saved Web Page_files.
- Click the page that you want, click Open, and then click OK to have Internet Explorer open the Web page.
- On the Favorites menu, click Add to Favorites.
- Click OK to add the page to your Favorites list.
The locally saved page now appears in your Favorites list.

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.
