    How to save a web page to desktop


    Trying to put the web site Etsy on my desktop. Right click does not give me the option. How do I make it a desktop icon?

    Hello Cortez Cat Lady, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

    What browser are you using?

    For now you could create a new shortcut on your desktop, and use the URL for the location.

    Thanks Brink,
    I use MSN? Not real sure..... On my computer at work which is Windows 7, I can open the web page and then right click and it will ask me if I want to save it to the desktop. With Windows 10 when I do the same, the only options I have is select all, print, inspect element and view source. I am totally lost....

    Try CTL+P which will print it. You can direct that to the desktop.

    With Internet Explorer I have the Menu bar showing so I just go to File, Save as... and follow the prompts. With Firefox I right-click in the page and choose Save page as... and follow the prompts. The 3 dots following various commands on context menus mean more choices will appear when clicked.

    With IE it's best to save page as .MHT as it saves only in one file. To do same with FF you need "UnMht" ad-on.

    Hi there

    Edge seems to missing the save as .MHT option. I still prefer IE anyway (I'm an Old Dinosaur-- don't like Menuless "modern UI" apps when I'm using a desktop --it' NOT a mobile phone !! and I still like MENUS. - even when I'm NOT in a Restaurant).

    Cheers
