Stephen Oerton, sure no problem. The following video demonstrates how it would work once the Favorites are created. I am assuming you are referring to the Favorites capability in Windows Explorer. The most consistent way of adding items to the Favorites list is to open %USERPROFILE%/Links in Windows Explorer. Now open a second Windows Explorer Window and use the RMB to drag items into the Links folder. When you drop them, use the "Create shortcuts here" in the context menu.
If you just try to drag items to the Favorites bar in Windows Explorer, it will only let you create shortcuts for locations. When you open the Links folder, you can create a shortcut to anything.
