    Win-10 Pro Quick Assist app shortcut


    I'm currently running a system with Win-10 Pro version 20H1, along with Open Shell 4.4.131 UI shell running normally. While this OS installation already has Windows Quick Assist already installed as I have confirmed, I was wondering if there was anyway to create a shortcut to Quick Assist app since it doesn't appear on the Open Shell Apps menu which I've never touched or modified and rarely use. Would be useful to have a shortcut to put into Open Shell or the IE Quick Launch bar at the bottom of the Windows desktop. Thanks for any suggestions.

    - and there it is in the Start Menu

    - or you can make use of the shortcut in the second screenshot.

    Thanks for everyone's suggestions. Turns out that Quick Assist is already a shortcut in the Open Shell menu, but I was looking in the Apps menu as I knew that Quick Assist was a Win-10 pre-installed app and thus only looked in the Apps menu. Problem solved. Thanks.
