I am using Installshield Express version 3.53 to install my software. It is successfully creating a desktop shortcut to my application, however it is only creating the shortcut on the current user's desktop.

I tried using the Customer Informormation dialog to give the end user the option of installing for only the current user or for all users, but that didn't help. In fact, even though I have full administrator rights on my target machine, it didn't even display that option for me.

Any guidance you might be able to provide would be greatly appreciated.
 
Well in wise there would be a propery called Application Users, which you set to AllUsers instead of OnlyCurrentUser.

Use the ALLUSERS property and set it to 1
