You can create a new .desktop file. Let's call it
Computer.desktop
Now, use Gedit or some editor and enter the following in the file:Save the file. Now right click on the file, choose
Properties->Permissions
Check the box toAllow executing the file as a program
. And you have yourself a launcher for Computer. If you want to change the location where the window starts, just change the/
on line to the location where you want it to open.
