On Windows 8 I could look up a web siteand then if I was going to frequently use it I could click with my mouse anywhere on that site and copy a link onto my desktop in the form of an icon. How can I do that with windows 10 ?

Hi Maria
In a web browser, navigate t that website
Then select everything in the address bar and press Ctrl + C top copy the website address
Right click your Desktop and choose New - Shortcut
On the resulting dialog, paste (Ctrl + V) that address into the location box and click 'Next'
Give the shortcut a meaningful name and click Finish
That's It!
