add send to list right clicking file

Does anyone know how to add to the list of options when you right-click on a file and select "Send To" ? I installed "Vista" on it's own drive and kept "XP" on C: Now I want to send files between the two by using the send to option. You can add to the XP list but I can't find a way to do that with Vista. Any help would be grateful. Thanks

You just move a shortcut to c:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\SendTo. BUT, getting past the permissions issue is challenging. I changed permissions on home personal home computer (on which I am admin) like this: * Permission is currently set to EVERYONE: Deny. *When the message comes up that you are denied permission, click the link to the Security tab * You can go through all the logical steps to give yourself "Full Control" but nothing seemed to work for me. * The only thing I found that really worked is to click EVERYONE...and then the Remove button.
Ok, I didn't say it was a nice solution, but it is a solution for a beta system. Just copy your shortcut then to that SendTo folder and it will be available to ya. -- eileenk

Or you could just copy your shortcut to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
This is not XP. Things are in different places now.

The sendto group uses the folder C:\Users\<Name>\Sendto I have not found a way, that I have the rights to see the contents. But I have found a way to copy a lnk. Here the way: 1. Open Dos/cmd with admin-rights 2. Move with the cd Command to C:\Users\<Name>\Sendto 3. Open File - explorer and copy a link to the folder C:\Users\<Name>. Use the Keys Control-Shift 4. You can rename the link (right-mouse rename) 5. Now type in the Dos/Cmd - Window copy /L <foldername>.lnk 6. Start now a new file-explorer and test Sendto.
I have test this and it's work, but it's crudy
