manualy search for a file?
 

I have made an Installer that installs 2 files. I also need the installer to Let me search for a desktop shortcut (will not always have the same name), and change the target of that shortcut to one of the 2 files I installed.

You could use the locate plugin ...

Updated code from this thread

code:
Name "Output"

OutFile "Output.exe"



!include "Locate.nsh"



!include "FileFunc.nsh"

!insertmacro GetFileName



Section

	StrCpy $R0 "MyProgram.exe"    #File name of the application



	${locate::Open} "$DESKTOP|$QUICKLAUNCH|$SMPROGRAMS" "/F=1 /D=0 /M=*.lnk /B=1" $0

	StrCmp $0 0 0 nextlocate

	MessageBox MB_OK "Error" IDOK endlocate



	nextlocate:

	${locate::Find} "$0" $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6



	StrCmp $6 '' endlocate

	ShellLink::GetShortCutTarget $1

	Pop $7

	${GetFileName} "$7" $7



	StrCmp $7 $R0 0 nextlocate
