Blair, could you elaborate on how writing shortcuts into unloaded profiles breaks things?

Altering profiles that are not loaded breaks roaming profiles in a really bad way (which may be why the initial release of Vista didn't include in Windows Installer the permission required to load profiles). -----Original Message----- From: Evan Beeton [mailto:ebee...@informasoftware.com] Sent: Thursday, October 29, 2009 12:37 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] SendTo shortcut for default and all user profiles on multiple OS's Hello, Does anyone know of a concise way to create a "SendTo" shortcut for the default user and all existing user profiles on XP, Vista and Windows 7? Our current approach uses a VBScript custom action to look for hard-coded paths in %USERPROFILE%. We have one script for Vista and one for XP, and are facing having a third for Windows 7. We haven't been able to find any way to do this directly in WiX. Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Come build with us!
