Hi,

I need to add a link to a website to all user's desktops. Unfortunately, we use local profiles. Is there a way I can do this without having to go to each workstation and add the link to their desktop folders?

Thanks!!!
 
If your using login scripts it's easy. Just add the shortcut to the netlogon directory and copy it from there to the users computer when they logon. You can use something like this:

copy "\\myserver\netlogon\file.url" "%userprofile%\desktop\file.url"
