Has no-one else had this problem that users can't click on shortcuts placed in the start menu when the ALLUSERS property is set to 1? Maybe it is relevant but this is happening on Windows 7 32-bit, I don't have an oppertunity to test how this works on other platforms.

Efni: Re: [WiX-users] Shortcuts in the All Users Start Menu Not being able to modify the shortcut is what I expected but no permissions at all, i.e. not being able to see it as a shortcut only as a file that the user can't double click to start or even have permissions to see it's icon, that is not what I expected.

That's expected: It's in a per-machine location so normal users can't modify them. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
