Create desktop shortcuts to open various settings in Windows 10

Click Next to continue and give it an appropriate name.
The shortcut is created. Right-click the icon > Properties > Web Document > Edit. Select an appropriate icon, click OK/Apply and Exit.
If you now click on the link, the landing page of the setup application opens.
You can also do this for any other setting of your choice.

to open Windows Registry.
Navigate to next button :

Right-click Shell > New > button. Name the key appropriately. I called it Settings because it is the Settings application landing page that we add to the context menu.
Right-click the newly created Settings > New > button button. Name this key as command .
Finally, double-click the default value of the command in the right window and enter the value data as :
C:Windowsexplorer.exe ms parameters :
Click OK and exit. Right-click on the desktop and you will see Settin. gs as the context menu entry.
