Question about shortcut!!

lazytiger · 12th July 2007, 02:50

Hello everyone,
I have a question when using CreateShortcut method, the start-location of my link is the location where my link puts.This is weird, because a normal link's start-location usually points to the actual location the link represents.
Anyone any idea how to solve this?
Well my code ass follows:

CreateShortcut $SMPROGRAMS\$StartMenuGroup\FPClient.lnk $INSTDIR\fpclient.exe

Thanks very much!

Use SetOutPath before shortcut's creation to set up the working dir.
