Find And Delete Broken Shortcuts

[esas]

Hi!

I need a script that searches, finds and deletes broken shortcuts.

I have no experiene with scripting and really need some help.

I've figured out I've got to use Win32_Shortcutfile.... ...I Think

This link might help..

Hi esas,

I will try not to take the fun out of it for you.

You already have the code that finds the links and extracts their targets.

This code determines if a file exists.....

Dim objFSO, flname
flname = "c:\test.txt"
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If objFSO.FileExists (flname) Then
   msgbox "File exists"
Else
   msgbox "File does not exist"
End If

and this code deletes a file...

objFSO.DeleteFile (flname)

so... get the link name, check if the target file exists, if not delete the link. 1-2-3

have fun

post again if you still have questions
