SharePoint Hive Short Cut (Desktop)

SharePoint Hive Short Cut (Desktop) is a free software package for Windows. It creates a shortcut to the SharePoint Hive-folder on the desktop. The folder structure is identified as either a 14-folder or 15-folder version, depending on the version in use. Its purpose is to provide a direct desktop entry point to that existing SharePoint location.

The package is intended for Windows users who need to reach the SharePoint Hive-folder from the desktop. It focuses on creating the shortcut rather than adding broader SharePoint functions. This makes the package relevant when the main requirement is a convenient link to the Hive-folder. The shortcut reflects the folder version associated with the user's SharePoint setup.

A separate package, SharePoint.HiveShortcut.Explorer, creates a shortcut in the links area of Windows Explorer. That package is distinct from SharePoint Hive Short Cut (Desktop) because the shortcut is placed in Explorer rather than on the desktop. The two package names therefore indicate different locations for accessing the SharePoint Hive-folder. Users can select the package that matches where they want the shortcut to appear.

MirrorNest lists this Windows package as free and links directly to the official release instead of mirroring the files. The catalog entry therefore serves as a reference to the original distribution source. Readers should use the linked official release for the package itself. Its Windows classification identifies the platform for which the shortcut package is provided.
