Shortcuts to the Desktop
- Posted by robert at wyotaz.com

Thanks for the tip Chris, but Martin's program keeps placing the "test"
under my root directory (c:). The installation I have created can place
the right LNK files in \Windows\Desktop and Windows\Start Menu\Programs.
This works fine on my machine and anyone who has accepted the default
values in a Windows Installation.
I guess, what I am looking for is a way to find the path to the default
windows directory so that I can change the copyFile line to
\path\Desktop and \path\Start Menu\Programs.
As you can probably tell, I am new to the programming world (born again,
since my last language was Pascal... many eons ago!), so any help would
be greatly appreciated.
