Yzöwl Posted May 12, 2005 Author Share Posted May 12, 2005 Theoretically, yes, although you do not require the double quotes either side of Readme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yzöwl Posted May 12, 2005 Author Share Posted May 12, 2005 Let me do a series of tests on a 2000 installation, (may take a while), and see if the issue is OS related.In the mean time it may help if you can give me a full run down of your requirements, you may do this via PM if preferred.

someuser77 Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 when i run the .inf as the system Administrator its working.when i run it as a Power User its not, what can i do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg_II Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Ups...I though you want to create the shortcut during unattended installation. Then it should work.If you are using it after installation in a Power User mode why not just log as an Administrator, run the script and re-log as your Power User?Reagards,Oleg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yzöwl Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 @ blabla03This thread is not for requests, the information provided in the first post is sufficient to get you started, all you need to do is search for the specific shortcut commands.As a one off, in the hope it helps tutorially here is what you need[Version]Signature = $Windows NT$[DefaultInstall]UpdateInis = AdminLinx[AdminLinx];Task Managersetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group0=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group0,,"""Task Manager"",""""""%11%\taskmgr.exe""""""";Disk Managementsetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group1=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group1,,"""Disk Management"",""""""%11%\diskmgmt.msc"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%""";Performancesetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group2=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group2,,"Performance,""""""%11%\perfmon.msc"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%""";Management Infrastructuresetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group3=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group3,,"""Management Infrastructure"",""""""%11%\wmimgmt.msc"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%""";Device Managersetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group4=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group4,,"""Device Manager"",""""""%11%\devmgmt.msc"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%""";Computer Managementsetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group5=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group5,,"""Computer Management"",""""""%11%\compmgmt.msc"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%""";Users & Groupssetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group6=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group6,,"""Users & Groups"",""""""%11%\lusrmgr.msc"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%"""To test it copy & paste the contents of the code box into a new notepad file and Save As All Files adminlnk.inf, right click on adminlnk.inf and choose Install, now look on your Desktop.NoteI will not be doing this again!

Wesmosis Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 (edited) thanx Yzwol for the hard workI followed you tutorial precisely , at first I got confused but with your last Example,,,,,the Install Trick was cool to test your shourtcut.inf working or not!ok I made a shortcuts.inf file . it worked great with Install and here it is:[version]signature=$chicago$[DefaultInstall]UpdateInis=AddShortcut[AddShortcut]; the first line is the final location of the shortcut; the second line is the original location of the filesetup.ini, progman.groups,, "group7=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group7,,"""PowerToy Calc"",""""""%11%\powerCalc.exe"""" /s"",,,,""%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%""";MSN Messenger 7setup.ini, progman.groups,, "group8=""%16400%\"""setup.ini, group8,,"""MSN Messenger 7"",""""""%16422%\MSN Messenger\msnmsgr.exe"""""""but when I integrate it into RunOnceEx.cmd and try the ISO, something wrong happen:??here is my RunOnceEx.cmd:REG ADD %KEY%\050 /VE /D "Adding User Defined Shortcuts" /fREG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 1 /D "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection Shortcuts 128 %CDROM%\Softwares\shortcuts.inf" /fplease what wrong did I do?

MioKawaii Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 (edited) Try:REG ADD %KEY%\050 /VE /D "Adding User Defined Shortcuts" /fREG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 1 /D "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %CDROM%\Softwares\shortcuts.inf" /f Edited June 19, 2005 by MioKawaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzöwl Posted June 20, 2005 Author Share Posted June 20, 2005 (edited) or to be on the safe side with your paths etc.reg add %KEY%\050 /ve /d "Adding User Defined Shortcuts" /freg add %KEY%\050 /v 1 /d "%systemroot%\system32\rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %CDROM%\Softwares\shortcuts.inf" /f<Edit>From your inf, the section which contains the main command is[DefaultInstall]UpdateInis=AddShortcutYou use the section name in your install command to perform the install. If you have a section name of 'DefaultInstall', this is used for the right click 'install' too. A good idea would therefore, in the majority of cases, be to use this section name in the majority of your infs. The 132 is used when the inf being run is not in the same location as the command calling it, as in this case where you are giving the location as a full path.</Edit> Edited June 20, 2005 by Yzöwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
