Push url shorcut in SCCM

[ATCal]

Hi,

Need to push a desktop shorcut in conjunction with an application push. Packaged a batch file that deploys the apps, but not the shorcut (calls vbscript). If I run it outside of Config Mgr, it works fine.

Much appreciated as this is driving me nuts.

Thanks.

Al

Use something like this.

Const OverwriteExisting = TRUE

Set objWshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
UserName = objWshShell.Environment("PROCESS")("UserName")

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
objFSO.CopyFile "\\server\file_location\shortcut.url" , "C:\users\" & username & "\Desktop\", OverwriteExisting

I have used that successfully in the past.

The real world is not about exam scores, it's about ability.

Thanks Simon.

Not an expert, so how would you "package" this?

Open notepad, paste it in, save it as a vbs file, create a package, create a collection for it and then create an advertisement.
