[Best way to create shortcuts silently]

Does anyone know how to create a desktop shortcut to an executable using a command line/batch or reg file?

I need it to solve desktop shortcuts for silent installer withous link creation switch like trojan remover.

Or for example, can i make a file to create shortcuts on desktop for word2003 and Excel 2003 after installing Office 2003 Word2007 and Excel 2007 after installing Office 2007?

Thank you

Is this an "official" bug, or my private one?

It works for me

[AVG Free 2013 silent install]

The problem is: After installing it silent, it opens the UserGUI. If you try to kill the process avgui.exe it makes errors because you have no permissions to kill this.

Any solutions to prevent the silent install from lauchning the GUI at the end?

TIA

skav

i found a working solution:

add these lines after silent installer

PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 5000 >NUL
taskkill /t /f /im avgui.exe
