Adding your own destinations to the ‘Send To’ context menu in Windows XP is quite easy. While it isn’t too difficult to do the same in Windows Vista, it is a little different. Here is how to do it in Vista.

Open the Control Panel, then Folder Options, then move to the View tab and select the option labelled ‘Show hidden files and folders’ and click OK. Now click Start, Computer, and open the C drive. Open the folder called users, then the one with your user name and navigate through the folders AppData, Roaming, Microsoft, Windows and finally SendTo. Add any shortcuts you want in the Send To menu to this folder.
