I would like to add the Win8 Start screen to the right click context menu in my "Send To" folder. Does anyone know where I would point to to get to the Start page. This would be very handy for adding apps/shortcuts to the Start screen, similar to adding to the Desktop.

Whenever you download an application or install a program, a shortcut tile is automatically placed on the Start Screen, which then can be either "Pinned" to the Start and/or Taskbar.

BTW, "Pin to Start" & "Pin to Taskbar" are already on the right click context.

Hope this helps,

Don
