How To Open Internet Explorer Without The Icon On Desktop Sydney NSW

So I was at the hospital and I couldn't find the Internet Explorer icon ANYWHERE! I couldn't find the run command either, so I used a simple batch file to open Explorer. There are many ways to do this, but this is my favorite.

How To Open Internet Explorer Without The Icon On Desktop

Steps

First, right click on your desktop to open a Notepad file.
Open the Notepad file and type the following without quotes (or copy and paste it):

"@echo off""START /max iexplore.exe"

Click "Save As" under File.
Save the file as "Internet Explorer.bat".
Be sure to scroll at the bottom of the save screen to select "All Files" or else it will save it as a Notepad file.
Exit the file.
An icon on your desktop should say "Internet Explorer.bat" and it will look like a box with a gear inside of it. Use this to run Internet Explorer.

Tips

Dont do this if security people or staff are around; you might get kicked off.

Warnings

Some people may think that you are "hacking" but just assure them that you are only trying to run Internet Explorer.

Things You'll Need

A computer (without an Internet Explorer icon).
Basic knowledge of how to save Notepad files.
