How to create a shortcut on my desktop to the newly installed application?

When I installed everything first 2 other applications, shortcuts on my desktop will automatically appear.  I downloaded another app and no shortcuts.  What should I do?

One way would be to search for the executable file in your file manager, right-click and choose Create shortcut, and then drag the shortcut on the desktop.

    To open windows Explorer:

    Click on Start > programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer

    From there, click on Workstation > C:\ > Documents and Settings > your name > Desktop

    You should end up at C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\Desktop where 'yourname' is the name you signed on the computer.

    On the right side of the screen should be all your icons you see on the screen.  Everything what you save will appear on the monior too.

  • How to create a shortcut with relative path

    Hi all

    I'm a Linux user, so I don't have enough experience to solve this problem.

    How can I create a shortcut with relative path?

    Usually it is easy to create a shortcut with the absolute path for example:
    Windows accepts shortcut path with absolute c:\bin\app.exe, but he does not accept the following relative path:
    .\bin\app.exe

    Hi mbnoimi,.

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Answers Forums!

    To make a shortcut path parent here is a simple solution. Create a shortcut to cmd.exe running the start command to open the current directory. Then set the MDC in the
    The shortcut properties.

    Follow these steps:

    Make a new shortcut to: cmd.exe /c start.

    Now, right-click on it and get the properties of the shortcut (shortcut tab).

    The shortened full path must have been set to this:
    %windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c start.

    Set the directory to "start in" (i.e. DLG) to be a relative path:
    (Example for a shortcut on the desktop

    )
    ...\SendTo

    Click on "change icon...". "and set" look for icons in this. "
    "file:" to:
    %SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll

    and press ENTER. Standard folder icon will probably be in the
    bottom right.

    Now you can copy this file and simply change the "start in:" directory
    to book new related shortcuts.

    NOTE: The steps above are just an example so try this at your own risk. And check if it works.

    Hope this information was useful.

    Let me know if it worked.

    All the best!

  • Urgent: how to create a shortcut with a relative path?

    I put a set of files and folders nested on a server on a network location.  (Use of office machines Vista; I don't know that the server is running.  The files are a text file and two Office 2007 files).  Users will copy this set-up files on their computer (there is a program of VBA macro in a Word document, they need).  They need tomorrow (Friday) and the shortcut path gives me fits!

    The hierarchy looks like:

    MainDir
    File.txt
    SubDir1
    Shortcut to the Word file
    SubDir2
    Word file
    Excel file

    I don't think even the paths associated with the shortcut until I looked a little deeper.  Because I put all the files and folders together on my computer, when I did a drag - move in the folder on the server, the target properties and start in the shortcut always pointed at my computer!  So now, I'm afraid that a user copy this on their machine will have a shortcut that points to ~ my ~ computer, instead of the file on their computer.

    I deleted the shortcut located on the server and creates a new one from the Word file in the directory on the server.  Better - I think - but it still points to the location of the server.  And it is even more likely that, when the user opens the shortcut, it will try to open the file on the server, vice the file on their computer.

    How can I create a shortcut to this Word file that will pick up the relative path from around where to reside?  I can just click > properties and change the target and start in paths?  Or do I need a VBScript or VBA?

    I have to get this done fast!  A kick - in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

  • How to create a shortcut for all users during installation

    Hi people,

    We have a desktop application that is distributed with Java Webstart and works on Win7 machines. Initially, users all connected using a connection by default, so creating shortcuts was not a problem. Now, because of new networking strategies, each user has his own connection.

    The problem is that the shortcut to the application is created in the user profile (for example "C:\Users\JohnDoe\", so that other users in the same machine can not run the application unless he or she installs the application again.)

    Is there a way to create this shortcut for all users using JNLP API or configuration in the xml file?

    If anyone has need of the solution: during installation I save the jnlp file in a directory accessible to all the world and then start the application using "javaws path\to\file.jnlp".
