"Right-click" on any chosen shortcut and select it's "Properties" page...

Thanks for that post, my real problem is suppose i want to display "hello
good morning" somewhere written on some file, to a popup message by giving
any shortcut key for it. Now i don't know how to do it... can you tell me
whole process step wise

The "whole process" is: write a program in the programming language of your
choice, to display a pop-up message. Then create a shortcut to the program.
Then assign a key to the shortcut.


Or, if the message is fixed (ie never changes) edit a small text file and
put the message in it, then create shortcut to the file - NotePad will then
display it, but not in a popup.


Or, create a shortcut to cmd.exe (**) then edit the shortcut's properties to
tell it to run the command "echo" with the text you want displayed, so eg
the command in the shortcut would be something like

%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe /K echo hello everyone!

This will display the message in a command window.


** navigate through folders until you find

C:\WINDOWS\system32 and in there find cmd.exe

Right-click it and choose 'send to ' ... 'desktop (create shortcut)'
