help needed on control panel

[Jaanvi]

Is it possible to add a shotcut of

control panel for desktop icons

(such my computer, my

documents, internet explorer

etc. ) so that after the installation

of window control panel icon is

also shown with other desktop

icons.

Yes it should be simple, give me a few days to fix my PC and I can make an option (same as my ie icon on desktop tweak) in the folder options for CPL icon on desktop (or use the ie tweak as an example to make the cpl one)

I wrote an inf to create the shortcut on XP. Has also attach below for download.

Feel free to try it.

 

Pls change the extension from .txt to .inf

Not "supported by run"

[Geej]

Perhaps you can run a batch command during XP setup to create Control Panel icon on desktop

md "%allusersprofile%\desktop\Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
