I am trying to get my quicklaunch bar to include IE, show desktop and defrag but I can't seem to get it working.

Here is what I'm using as a regedit /s HKCU.reg in my cmdlines.txt

What I get is show desktop and IE but nothing else...

Anybody have any sugestions?

Thanks

You need to copy shortcuts for the programs that you want into the "QuickLaunch" Folder. That registry setting does not add shortcuts, it simply turns on the QuickLaunch Bar. You can add additional shortcuts by copying them into "C:\Documents and Settings\<User Name>\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch"

Hope this helps.

Matt

here's what I'm checking, added a dir for the build to pick it up automatically...

$OEM$\$doc\Default User\Application data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

I'll let you know...

Roger

You can also make a sfx/rar to extract your icons in the Quick Launch folder

using %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch as the target dir

I prefer this method ' cause putting the files in the $oem$ folder make them read only 'cause they come form the cd during the blue screen just after the copy of the windows files during start of installation)

to activate the quick launch automatically i didn't use it i activate it manually after first boot

This isn't true, with following command you can remove all attributes...

attrib -R -H X:\folder /S /D

hi,

please keep in mind that u cannot change all Quicklaunch Icons during GUI-Mode Installation as a few of them are created when a new user logs in at the first time.

(These are Internet Explorer and the Media Player icon in quicklaunch)

This is very annoying and i haven't found a solution yet. Any help would be appreciated.

hope this helps a bit

@ Bâshrat the Sneaky

Yes I know you're right

but ...

i prefer using some rar sfx files instead of using the attrib command for the app and files copied by the "blue setup" in the $oem$\$1\$progs and/or $oem$\$1\$docs

but it's a personal preference

and i think it's sometimes necessary to remind people about the presence of the R/O attributes...

@killerbee

if you mean remove icons you can use a vbscript at the end of the setup (during the first login with autologon activated) it's what i do after using my rarfiles to remove what ever you want where ever you want (desktop,startup menu drive ....)

here is an example

Option Explicit

'** Déclaration des variables **

Dim oSh, oSystemRoot, oSystemDrive, oFSO

Dim oUserProfile,oAllUsersProfile,oprogramdir,oWindir

Dim strdrivers,strtools,strregfiles,strcusto,strdrivers2

on error resume next

'** Création de l'objet Shell **

Set oSh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

'** Mise en variable des variables d'environnement **

oSystemRoot = oSh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SYSTEMROOT%")

oSystemDrive = oSh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SYSTEMDRIVE%")

oUserProfile = oSh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERPROFILE%")

oprogramdir = oSh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%PROGRAMFILES%")

oWindir = oSh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%windir%")

oAllUsersProfile = oSh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%ALLUSERSPROFILE%")

'** Mise en variable des chemins source et destination **

strdrivers = (oSystemDrive & "\drvs")

strdrivers2 = (oSystemDrive & "\install")

'** Création de l'objet FileSystemObject **

Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

'** suppression des fichiers et dossiers inutiles **

' dossiers d'installation

oFSO.DeleteFolder strdrivers, True

oFSO.DeleteFolder strdrivers2, True

' elements all users

oFSO.DeleteFile(oallUsersProfile & "\Menu Démarrer\ Windows catalog.lnk")

oFSO.DeleteFile(oallUsersProfile & "\Menu Démarrer\Configurer les programmes par défaut.lnk")

oFSO.DeleteFile(oallUsersProfile & "\Menu Démarrer\Windows Update.lnk")

'** Destructeurs **

Set oSh = nothing

Set oSystemDrive = nothing

Set oSystemRoot = nothing

Set oFSO = nothing

you can add a remove command for the internet explorer shortcut in your quick launch folder (eg internet explorer.lnk and mediaplayer.lnk)

try it... i do it and it's ok

aknott...

hi,

i know i can do this via a vbscript after login, but it would be nicer if they'd never appear there. If some1 knows which .inf to edit that they'll never appear there, please share ur knowledge with us.

thx in advance
