If you want to track it use a compliance setting. I used one to switch everyone’s Start Menu .urls to a new site.

Yes, no real way to track or verify like with the discovery criteria in SCCM. For us, we use custom made icons for some shortcuts that aren't on the native OS. So if we use GPO we'd have to either keep that icon shared in a central location and point the policy to it, or deploy the file to the machine and point the policy to it locally. I'd rather just use SCCM in that case. On Mon, Feb 1, 2016 at 8:14 PM, Jason Sandys <ja...@sandys.us<mailto:ja...@sandys.us>> wrote: Don’t disagree.

Still thinks gpo is pretty quick. User, Preferences, shortcuts. Select Target typeURL, Item level targeting – domain users or whatever AD group you choose It’s a lot less work than maintaining a deployment. Nothing against SCCM. I love it for everything else.

This is a pretty easy task. Create the .lnk or .url file, create a batch file to copy the .lnk (or .url) file to the public desktop folder, place both in a package, run the batch file in the program. Done.

Yeah, I think I will use GP for this. I just finished discussing my options with someone else and it sounds like deploying shortcuts via SCCM can be a bit cumbersome. Thanks for the quick response.
