Well it is actually not to hard to do this like i do But this method does not work for unattended xp only as you use it normaly in xp. here is how i do that. Just copy any program and click right menu and select create shortcut. Maybe it sounds stupid and anyone can do this simply but it's true this is all i know how it works simple in windows but not in unattended version. So how can it be done in other way ? I have tried and like this method of cource %systemdrive%\program files\my program.exe and add this to program shortcut. but nothing happens. and this method does not work too c:\program files\my program.exe I hav just asked for people how to create silent installtion method but none of them worked correctly in only one way i have descovered how it can be done so easily what i have done it is so amaizing way. I just added and created, compresed program using winrar and just put the winrar sfx setup in cmdlines.txt like registry tweaks and when what i saw i couldn't believed that i have done this work correctly in simplest way as posibble as i know now I hope someone it will like it to know what i have just done. I know that this is not a news but for new guys it will be nice to know how it works in simplest way. It installs any programs you want silently and create it in start menu program but do not add program shortcut to desktop or to quick launch. That's why i need to know how it can be done from registry or in the another way and show it on desktop or add it to quik launch. I actually have found 2 methods one in cmdlines.txt add and other method to extract program with universal extractor and add program to program files location and create a shortcut but none of 2 methods do not work for shortcuts in unattended xp.
