Deleting shortcut in the SendTo folder (For Current users and All users)

[meoit]

Hellow ALL.

Sorry for my bad English.

I found in the AutoIT document, but I can not found Function to create/delete Shortcuts in the SendTo folder.

(Includes Current users and All users.)

Where can I find it ?.

Thanks.

Function to Create Shortcut

Function to delete shortcut

 

You need to specify the appropriate SendTo folder path in parameter "lnk" - Full path and file name of the shortcut.

Below are the methods to access different SendTo shortcut folders:

AutoIt - Get Current User Desktop Folder Path

AutoIt - Get Desktop Folder Path for 'All Users'

AutoIt - Get My Documents Folder

AutoIt - Get Documents Folder Path for 'All Users'

There is a difference between the path of the SendTo folder in Windows Vista/7/8/10 and Windows XP. Anyway I also thank you.

Somebody help me.

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

_FileListToArrayRec() for Users, and go through an array to put the desired shortcut.  

That or if that is too complicated do a run at startup script that runs as the current user.

 

For XP just add a check if StringinStr(@OSVersion, "XP") then...

Yes, your method belong to Current User. What about All Users ?.

[ViciousXUSMC]

As a log in script it would get all users as they log in, as a recursive search on the users folder it would get all users at once.

Also since your doing a deletion it looks like instead of an add, you could even just search the C: for all instances of that shortcut and delete them all.
