Introduction to Adding Excel in WPS to Desktop
Adding Excel to your desktop in WPS Office is a straightforward process that allows you to quickly access your spreadsheets without opening the full WPS Office suite. This guide will walk you through the steps to create a shortcut to Excel on your desktop.
Step 1: Open WPS Office
To begin, launch WPS Office on your computer. If you haven't installed it yet, you can download and install it from the official WPS website. Once installed, open the application to proceed.
Step 2: Locate the Excel Application
Within the WPS Office suite, you will find various applications such as Writer, Presentation, and, of course, Excel. Click on the Excel icon to open the application. If you're not sure which icon to click, look for the one that resembles a spreadsheet.
Step 3: Create a Shortcut
With Excel open, you can now create a shortcut to add it to your desktop. To do this, click on the File menu at the top left corner of the Excel window. Then, select Save As from the dropdown menu.
Step 4: Choose Desktop as the Save Location
In the Save As dialog box, you will see a field labeled Save in. Click on the dropdown menu next to this field and select Desktop from the list of available locations. This will ensure that the shortcut is created on your desktop.
Step 5: Name Your Shortcut
Below the Save in field, there is a field labeled File name. Enter a name for your shortcut that is easy to recognize, such as Excel Shortcut. This name will appear on your desktop when the shortcut is created.
Step 6: Save the Shortcut
After naming your shortcut, click the Save button at the bottom of the Save As dialog box. This will create a shortcut to Excel on your desktop. You can now close the Excel application.
Step 7: Accessing Excel from Your Desktop
To use the new shortcut, simply navigate to your desktop and double-click on the Excel Shortcut icon. This will open Excel, allowing you to start working on your spreadsheets immediately. You can now add, edit, or create new spreadsheets directly from your desktop without opening the full WPS Office suite.
