Would it have something to do with using unquoted destination directories containing spaces?

One other problem i need help with. My ProfileItems not creating a shortcut to the .EXE files, i've tried many ways but just can't get it to create the shortcut on the start menu, i've looked at how it is done and just copied it but still can't get it to work.

Many Thanks

Did you update your .inf so it looks something like this? You must create ProfileItems first.
This should do the work...

Yep thats what i have done but it just wont create the shortcuts in the start menu as below.

The destination dir is Program Files\Retro Games\Chronos

Start Menu\Retro Games\Chronos\Chronos.exe

ProfileItems = Chronos.AddShortcut

[Chronos.AddShortcut]
Name = Chronos
CmdLine = 16422,%CHRONOSMAIN%,Chronos.exe
SubDir = %CHRONOSMAIN%
WorkingDir = 16422,%CHRONOSMAIN%
InfoTip = An Old Spectrum Game

My other .inf file creates a shortcut but for some reason this one does not. Any other ideas?

Many Thanks

Guess what?

I bet you knew I was going to say this, but.…

Did the working ones have spaces in their paths?

Did you by any chance add a [DefaultInstall] section with the same stuff thats under your OCEntry?

BTW the shortcut code looks good, it should be working

Hi Yzöwl

I removed Games in "Retro Games" as you can see below, but the shortcuts are still not being created.

CHRONOSMAIN = "Retro\Chronos"

As i said before the inf file 'pagedfrg' creates the shortcut.

I am wondering if it the one in bold that is the problem? I will try it out and report back

[Chronos.AddShortcut]
Name = Chronos
CmdLine = 16422,%CHRONOSMAIN%,Chronos.exe
SubDir = %CHRONOSMAIN%
WorkingDir = 16422,%CHRONOSMAIN%
InfoTip = An Old Spectrum Clasic Game

Is the shortcut not being made or is it a broken icon?
When I have a issue with a shorcut I use this.

 

CREATE A SHOURTCUT FILE AND CHANGE PROPERTIES TO
%ProgramFiles% (ex. "C:\Unreal Tournament 3" to "%ProgramFiles%\Unreal Tournament 3"

THEN ADD:

[PROGRAM NAME]
CopyFiles =AddShortcut.Files

[DestinationDirs]
AddShortcut.Files =16407,STARTMENUFOLDER
; 16407 = %allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs
; 16386 = %userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs

[AddShortcut.Files]
SHORCUTNAME

Hope this helps.

Try to do what I explained, that should work. Also, try to remove your "infotip" in your .inf. That may sound weired but I have actually had that issue with some programs, not sure why though so I just do it the way I posted.

Well after a lot of messing about, checking and checking the inf file i have finaly got it working.
There was a mistake in one of the files which was not getting installed and was preventing the creation of the shortcuts.

Thank you to all who as helped me here.

Hi,

I am having similar problems of shortcuts not being created. In my case, I changed the install path, but I'm not sure how to
specify the path for the shortcut entries.

The following works, but has the wrong path for me:

[PROG.AddShortcut]
Name =%SRTC_NAME%
CmdLine =16422,%PROG_DIR%,%PROG_1%
WorkingDir =16422,%PROG_DIR%
SubDir =%PROG_SDIR%
InfoTip =%PROG_INFO%

The following doesn't work and I get a pop-up at the end of install that the inf is inconsistant.
How do i specify c:\toolbx to replace 16422 (c:\program files)?

[PROG.AddShortcut]
Name =%SRTC_NAME%
CmdLine =c:\toolbx,%PROG_DIR%,%PROG_1%
WorkingDir =c:\toolbx,%PROG_DIR%
SubDir =%PROG_SDIR%
InfoTip =%PROG_INFO%

Thanks for any pointers.

Try the following:

CmdLine =24,toolbx\%PROG_DIR%,%PROG_1%
WorkingDir =24,toolbx\%PROG_DIR%
