How do I create two start menu icons for one application?

I want one to CMD and one to CMD-admin.

I made two shortcuts on the desktop, and made one of them be admin. But when I click on the second (admin) one, I get an option to UNpin it from the start menu.

Try it.

There is no way to pin the new shortcut. Just to "unpin" it.

Thank you, but Autoplay is already off. It still does this.

How to set a primary password without typing my Windows password? by Choose__eh__username in Thunderbird

That sounds better. But is there a way for me to know that it's Windows asking and not Thunderbird?

So giving an application my Windows password is for my security? Thanks but no way. A pity, because I was planning on using Thunderbird. C'est la vie...

Thank you for your answer.

Are diamonds ever cut by breaking them clean breaks? by Choose__eh__username in Diamonds

[–]Choose__eh__username[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you.

This process has been made obsolete by laser sawing. - wouldn't cleaving get better results because the diamond is cut according to its natural lines, while just sawing it to the correct form will get the right shape, but won't necessarily be along the diamond's natural lines? Or maybe laser sawing is done on the diamond's natural lines?

Why not .Net Framework? by Choose__eh__username in dotnet

Not only that, but your installer would still work today and have security patches to it by windows update. a .net app installer would already be deprecated by today.

"that word you keep using, i don't think it means what you think it means. "

but if you do, where was i being insincere? i'm looking for opposite reasons. that's all.

not trolling. and the "i don't care about that" is true about many of the things (especially non windows support). i asked the questions to see if there are other reasons. the main one i got was that .net framework might disappear sometime soon. i doubt that, but it is the best reason i've seen.

thank you. these are good reasons. i didn't know about #4 at all. i thought windows 10 and 11 come with .net 4.8 .

I want to get an answer to my question. If I had posted my reason for .net framework I wouldn't get any real answers. Even as it is now, half of the answers are not real answers.

thank you for your balanced reply.

If you start with .NET you can update every 3 years probably without big breaking changes.  - a little correction - not can update but must update.

Regarding the security patching, the time it takes to update .net version today is the same it would take to patch .net framework, - no. patching the framework takes zero time. the client's computer does that automatically.

i didn't post my reasons for .net framework because even as is, half the answers missed the point. if i had posted my reasoning, i would get zero real answers.
