It appears you have the Vizio Viewer, not the complete Vizio application. As such, it will open a Vizio file to view, but the file cannot be edited, so there is not much point in adding a shortcut to the menu. Just double-click a .vdx, .vsx, or .vtx file. – DrMoishe Pippik – 2017-04-21T16:22:17.880

It's Visio, not Vizio. – Paul Herber – 2017-04-22T08:00:58.683

@PaulHerber can you write "@" to the person you are addressing e.g. @DrMoishe otherwise it looks like you are addressing me, and you are not – barlop – 2017-04-22T08:50:31.530

It looks like you installed the Visio viewer, which does not have a standalone application. You can view Visio files from within Internet Explorer.

Download Microsoft Visio 2013 Viewer

Microsoft Visio 2013 Viewer allows anyone to view Visio drawings inside their Microsoft Internet Explorer Web browser.

do you know if any office version includes full ms visio? – barlop – 2017-04-21T16:20:53.487

1While technically part of Microsoft Office, Microsoft Visio (and Microsoft Project) are separately purchased programs. – Steven – 2017-04-21T16:23:51.513
