## 2. Add a Desktop/Launcher Shortcut for Superalgos
|
||||
|
||||
**A.** For **Windows** Users
|
||||
There are a number of scripts available to help make lauching Superalgos easier and feel more native. To use these scripts, follow the steps for your operating system.
|
||||
|
||||
## For **Windows** Users
|
||||
|
||||
Open a file browser and navigate to the Superalgos Directory.
|
||||
|
||||

Script under development
|
||||
Open a terminal and run the following commands:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd Superalgos/Launch-Scripts
|
||||
```
|
||||
```
|
||||
bash create-shortcut-ubuntu.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After running these commands there will be two shortcuts added. One to your launcher and one to your desktop. The launcher shortcut will work out of the box. The desktop shortcut, however, requires a few additional steps to set up.The following section will walk you through these steps.
|
||||
|
||||
**A.** Enable Desktop Shortcut
|
||||
|
||||
First, desktop icons need to be enabled within the Tweaks app.
|
||||
* Check if Tweaks is installed.
|
||||
* If not go to Ubuntu Software.
|
||||
* Install Tweaks.
|
||||
* Open Tweaks.
|
||||
* Under extensions turn on Desktop Icons
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**TIP:** If you do not see the desktop shortcut appear right away you may need to restart your computer.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you will need to enable the desktop shortcut.
|
||||
* Right click Superalgos.desktop and select Allow Launching.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Now both shortcuts will launch Superalgos like any other program on your computer.
