Hi:

When I right-click on a file, One of the options is "Sent to".

In my new computer, the "Sent to" options are limited. How can I, for example, add Notepad to the "Sent to" options?
 
You make shortcuts to programs or what ever in the folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\"Username"\SendTo
Where "username" is your logged on account name.
 
To add a destination to the Send To menu, (from Help and Support).

Open My Computer.

Double-click the drive where Windows is installed (usually drive C, unless you have more than one drive on your computer).

If you can't see the items on your drive when you open it, under System Tasks, click Show the contents of this drive.

Double-click the Documents and Settings folder.
Double-click the folder of a specific user.
Double-click the SendTo folder.

The SendTo folder is hidden by default. If it is not visible, on the Tools menu, click Folder Options. On the View tab, click Show hidden files and folders.

On the File menu, point to New, and then click Shortcut.
Follow the instructions on your screen.


 
You can also Click on Start > Run and type sendto and press ok.
