How to create desktop shortcut for all users in WIX
I am developping a MSI installer by using WIX, I can create shortcut on desktop for only one user. Now what shall I do to make a shortcut for all users on the machine? Please开发者_运维问答 advise. Thank you.
<Shortcut Id="desktopshortcut" Directory="DesktopFolder" Name="test"
WorkingDirectory='INSTALLDIR' Advertise="yes" />
You can have WiX set ALLUSERS=1
automatically by declaring Package/@InstallScope='perMachine'
... e.g.
<Package Description="!(loc.Package_Description) $(var.version)"
Comments="!(loc.Package_Comments)"
Manufacturer="!(loc.ManufacturerName)"
InstallerVersion="301"
Compressed="yes"
InstallPrivileges="elevated"
InstallScope="perMachine"
Platform="$(var.ProcessorArchitecture)" />
Set ALLUSERS=1
, so that the Installer points the DesktopFolder
property to the common desktop instead of the installing user's desktop.
