Click the folder for your user account name.

Click the Sendto folder.

In the right pane, right click and select New, then select Shortcut.

Create a shortcut to Notepad.exe by browsing to the file location in the Create Shortcut Wizard (it should be located in the systemroot folder, usually named WINDOWS, usually on the c: drive).
