Hey all: I want to deployed my project by creating a setup file which will create shotcuts icons of the project on destop. In addition, the application also should be added in All programs file of start Menu of windows. I was able to create setup files with out shorcuts on destop. Can you help how to get shotcuts on destop and start menu of window?? Thanks

What are you using to create the setup ? I actually include the shortcut files in my setup program, but, I don't let the user set a location.

Hey: I'm using SetUP project template of Setup and Deployment Project. Even I do include the shortcut files in my setup. It does show. But my problem was the shortcut icons just open the destop. I want the short cut to open my .exe file of my application instead. Like when we click word icon, it opens word file. Thanks a lot for your help.

Why does the icon point to the desktop ? If you mean that you have a document file which you want to open your program with that document, you need to set that up in the registry.
