Vista Upgrade - Place a Link on the Desktop? Anyone?


Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone,

I am creating a Vista upgrade DVD and I want to put a link on the customers desktop after / during the upgrade process. I have tried using the unattended XML and a few various methods i have tried include:

Specialize Pass

RunSynchronous where i can install applications like Acrobat 8 using a cmd script and in the command script running syntax in my script

copy c:\<mydir>\*.lnk %allusersprofile%\desktop

also

copy c:\<mydir>\*.lnk c:\users\public\desktop

OOBE Pass

FirstLogoncommands where i tried using just copy c:\<mydir>\*.lnk %homepath%\desktop

also c:\<mydir>\<my command script> with the same copy syntax copy c:\<mydir>\*.lnk %homepath%\desktop

StartPanellinks where i tried c:\<mydir>\<linkfilename>

and finally

FirstLogonCommands and

LogonCommands with c:\<mydir>\<my command> with the same copy syntax copy c:\<mydir>\*.lnk %homepath%\desktop

Yet I can not seem to get a link on the blasted Desktop....

Is there something I amd doing wrong...? I am using RTM build 6000

Help is desperately needed.

Cheers Gwido
