Most of my auto scripts are batch right now since they are easy to maintain. So a solution in batch would be appreciated. I want to do a few things. copy a .ico file to C:\ copy a .url file to the users start menu where my automation is happening I know I can batch the .ico to C with no problem Then the easiest way would be to copy the folder with the .url files into the start menu for all users but I'm having a brainfreeze. I know I can use C:\documents and settings\%ALL USERS% in the path. I just cant get the format correct. I'm like 3 quarters the way there lol. I have about 40 other tasks automated into these batch scripts like installing software and windows updates and such. I'm working on a .net version of our automation that I plan to release under the GPL including package manager for silent installs reg files and the works. I'll update you guys once its on sourceforge. Were just getting ready to kick the batch scripts out since vista's coming.
