Create System Restart Shortcut Button On Windows Desktop

Published by: Alex George on December 11, 2013
Would you like to restart your Windows computer without going start menu and select the option Restart in a traditional way? I am not talking about the keyboard shortcut but to create an icon which reboots your PC automatically. You can create a system restart button and place it on the desktop. Whenever you need to reboot your computer, you can do it by simply using the custom button you have created. To create a custom restart shortcut button on your Windows desktop, follow the instructions provided below. The procedure is the same for Windows 7 and  8.
