Shortcuts on the desktop, shortcuts on the task bar, pins on the Start menu, hitting the windows key and typing in the name

All faster than having to open the Xbox app and finding the game amongst advertisements lol

On my Legion Go, which obviously i only use for gaming, I've got the shortcuts to my stuff pinned onto the start menu and it's always just a swipe up from the bottom away.

Dunno how this new Xbox experience is going to be any better lol

Shortcuts (".lnk" files) are no longer useful for some reason?
