As computer scientists we are trained to communicate with the dumbest things in the world – computers – so you’d think we’d be able to communicate quite well with people. Knowing the position is useful because if you Press and Hold the key, then tap the number key ,ie 3, it will start that application for you. The Office app is useless if you want to use the full "desktop" version of the applicationsĪlso notice that I have the 2010 Word application pinned on my taskbar in the 3rd position on the taskbar. And, the online apps are "dumbed down" so they only support basic features. The only problem with this applet is that it will only start the Online versions of the applications, which It starts a small metro application showing recently used files. Here is an example of how I've pinned my Office tiles to the Start menu and moved them all to the upper left corner:Īlso take note of the orange "Office" tile. When you release the right click, select "Copy Here" or "Create Shortcut". Right click on them and drag to your desktop Will open a File Explorer window in the Start menu location where the underlying shorcuts are kept, ieĬ:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programsįind the shortcuts you want, ie Word, Excel, Outlook. Available for single click access, and a "most recently" used list of files.įinally, if you really do want to put shortcuts on the desktop, in the start menu, right click on the tile, select "Open File Location" or "More > Open FIle Location" (which you see first depends on where in the start menu you right click on the tile. This places the application tile/shortcut on the left end of the Task bar. In the start menu you can right click and pick The Windows taskbar (at the bottom of your screen, personally I drag it to the top so is it "closer" to the application ribbon(s)). There is another option you may prefer over putting shortcuts on the desktop. Key to display the start menu and there are the Office tiles, easy to click on.
After you pin them all, I like to move them to the upper right corner in a single group. This places them on the Start pane to the right of the alphabetical list. So, the first thing I like to do with a new computer is search for all of the applications, In the Start menu, Office 365 now only installs the application tiles (shortcuts) in the alphabetical list. First thing to be aware of is that MS REALLY (REALLY!) wants us to use OneDrive.
