Is it possible to put a folder on the desktop containing files/shortcuts
etc.. that can be accessed as a menu rather than having to double click it,
to open it?

Thanks

Have you tried the Quick Launch bar? You can put about as many shortcuts
there as you want and a single click will bring them up on menu.. You can
also put folders on there but I am not sure just how big you want to let
that folder get.
HTH,

Try dragging the folder to the edge of the screen and let go. It should
open as a toolbar where 1 click opens the files. To close, just right
click and select "close toolbar".
