Hi Cristóbal, It appears that the only way to create a website shortcut for Firefox is to create a new shortcut on the desktop, and paste the URL for that site into the shortcut. Keep in mind this shortcut will only work if Firefox is your default browser.

From what I remember, it was somewhat straight forward with Chrome, but Firefox required some additional steps and command prompt this and tweek that. This is with Windows 10 by the way. Anyway, I got busy with other stuff and sort of left that task linger and I almost forgot that I wanted to do that until I came across this thread. So yeah, Anyone got any ideas? -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2018 8:34 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Desktop Shortcuts With Firefox After all that, I realize I answered a question different from the one you're asking.

I also have Windows 7. This should work. Press the Windows key and arrow up once to "all Programs." Press enter, then when a list appears press the up arrow key once. Then press f until Firefox appears. On hearing Firefox verbalized, press the applications key. Arrow up to "send to submenu," press enter again. Then press the down arrow key until you hear "Desktop" and press enter yet again. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Mike B.

When you want to create a desktop shortcut from a website you visit regularly, how in the heck do you do it?! In IE11 you can get create desktop shortcut options in the context menu, or from the file menu, but with Firefox I can't find anywhere in the context or file menu that will allow me to create a desktop shortcut while on the website. So again, how is this done? All help will be a great hair saver, and immensely appreciated! LOL Thanks much. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool.
