# Move Shortcuts Project

Helps in organizing the link mess that Choco makes on your Desktop... and more!

## Introduction

When using Chocolatey to install or update applications my desktop often

gets cluttered with program links. What I want, is to free myself the work

to clean up the mess, but also I don't want to lose the links...

what to do then?

What this program does is to create a new folder at `C:\Shortcuts` where

it places every shortcut it finds as being clutter to the Desktop.

This became so useful because then I added this folder to the `PATH`

environment variable, and made lists of small commands to associate with

each one of these programs.

For example, the link `"Visual Studio Code"` will be sent to the special

shortcuts folder when found on the Desktop, but also new links will be created:

`"code"` and `"coda"`. The first open VS Code normally,

the second opens it with elevated privileges.
