radix Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) can you help me with this by chance?my msn is brasssmunkye@gmail.comor if you have xfire thats even better(in which case my xfire is brasssmunky)Try the easy way:Make a folder called $Progs inside of $OEM$ dir and put your applications there (each of them inside a folder, like in Program Files when are installed.)Create $OEM$\$$\system32 and copy Shortcut.exe file from link provided in my previous post inside.Add the commands to create shortcuts for your applications in Unattended->RunOnce section of nLite.Examples:shortcut.exe /f:"%userprofile%\Desktop\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1shortcut.exe /f:"%userprofile%\Start Menu\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1shortcut.exe /f:"%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1shortcut.exe /f:"%allusersprofile%\Desktop\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1shortcut.exe /f:"%allusersprofile%\Start Menu\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1shortcut.exe /f:"%allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1shortcut.exe /f:"%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\NetMeter.lnk" /a:c /t:"%programfiles%\NetMeter\NetMeter.exe" /w:"%programfiles%\NetMeter" /r:1 Edited May 24, 2008 by radix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
