Hey YGYL,

It's not easy to understand what you say :)

Maybe you can ask a friend to translate it to english for you? Or in last resort, post your question in your original language!

Identify active network connections and change DNS server - Easily export Windows network settings

Clean temporary files from Windows users profiles directories - List Active Directory Groups members

Export content of an Outlook mailbox to a PST file - File patch manager - IRC chat connect example

Thanks again for your help Water!

FileCreateShortcut ( "file", "lnk" [, "workdir" [, "args" [, "desc" [, "icon" [, "hotkey" [, icon number [, state]]]]]]] )

"icon" Parameter can not working correctly  Under WIN2012 & WIN8

my computer name is SERVER，when "icon" Parameter is "servershell32.dll"

Does it work if you create a shortcut via the manual method and changing the icon too? If the answer is no, then it's not a bug.

This may be off topic and involve a different FileCreateShortcut bug, but when I use the AutoIt command FileCreateShortcut to create a shortcut that has an icon whose path points to a root folder, the icon will not show. In other words,  

@HomePath & "\IconPath\my.ico"
or 
"C:\IconPath\my.ico"

will resolve as "%SystemDrive%\IconPath\my.ico". And the icon will not display until I open the shortcut 's properties and click on "change icon" button, then the icon will appear. But why should I have to do that?

This command will work fine... 

FileCreateShortcut ("D:\UTILITY\Print\help.chm", @StartMenuCommonDir & "\Programs\Print\Help.lnk", "D:\UTILITY\Print", "", "Printer Help Guide", @WindowsDir & "\system32\wscui.cpl", "" , 1, @SW_SHOWNORMAL)

 

But these commands will produce a shortcut with no icon displayed and having an icon path in the  shortcut properties that says "%SystemDrive%\Bin\Icons" 

FileCreateShortcut ("D:\MEDIA\TV\Software\Family.au3", @StartMenuCommonDir & "\Programs\,TV\Family Room Remote.lnk", "", "", "Script to Configure Some Software", "C:\Bin\Icons\My.ico", "" , 1, @SW_SHOWNORMAL)

FileCreateShortcut ("D:\MEDIA\TV\Software\Family.au3", @StartMenuCommonDir & "\Programs\,TV\Family Room Remote.lnk", "", "", "Script to Configure Some Software", @HomePath & "\Bin\Icons\My.ico", "" , 1, @SW_SHOWNORMAL)

The only way I have found to fix this is to replace @homePath with a variable declaring the path at the top of your script.
