Hi Jay,
Try this thread (Quite recent really)

http://forums.uktrainsim.com/viewtopic. ... +and+tools

You say no luck on the 'net'. Did you try UKTS 'Advanced Search'?

Hope this is enough to sort you out.

I have a folder on my Desktop named 'MSTS Shortcuts', all relevent shortcuts are in there. Train Store, Activity Analysis ect.

Good luck
Doug

try Start-All Programs-Microsoft games-Train simulator

This works on mine which is Windows XP professional.

When I set up MSTS on my VISTA laptop I lost my shortcut and there seemed no way to recreate it. In the end I copied the shortcut on my XP laptop and pasted it into the VISTA laptop. I then neede to check/amend the permissions!

Of minimal help I know but . .

Hi Jay,
If you are using Windows 7, the following will get the desktop shortcut back :

1. Left click on 'Start'
2. Left click on 'All Programs'
3. Left click on 'Microsoft games'
4. Left click on 'Train Simulator'
5. Right click on 'Train Simulator Editor & Tools'
6. Left click 'Copy' (Win7 doesn't have a 'Copy shortcut' option)
7. Return to the Desktop
8. Left click anywhere on screen and select 'Paste shortcut'
9. The icon can then be moved to wherever you want it by Left click and Hold then drag it.

If you wish to create a shortcut for Train Simulator itself, click on 'Train Simulator' at item 5.

I believe the same procedure will work for Vista, but please don't quote me!!

Cheers,
