Get Folder Location on Win9x
Posted: Fri Aug 11, 2006 8:21 am
I'm currently running some installation tests, and I'm finding that Get Folder Location isn't working properly for me on Win9x operating systems (I'm mostly testing with Windows ME).
Here's my command sequence:
Set Variable STARTUPFOLDER to
Get Common Folder Location Start Menu->Startup Group into STARTUPFOLDER
Create Shortcut $STARTUPFOLDER$\\My App to $TARGETDIR$\\MyApp.exe
This works perfectly fine on Windows XP and Windows 2000. Unfortunately, it seems to fail entirely on Win9x based operating systems, apparently because the STARTUPFOLDER variable isn't being populated correctly.
This is pretty critical for me; any thoughts on a work-around would be most welcome.
