I have the following vbs script running as a logon script. But everytime it
runs, When the shortcut is created, it is created with the symbol of no icon.
How can I direct the icon location to an actual windows system icon file.
When I open up a file via properties, and browse for a new icon, it directs
me to look in shell32.dll, but I can't find a way to get to all of those
icons shown in that window.

Thanks

set objShell = Wscript.Createobject("Wscript.Shell")
strDesktopFld = objShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
Set objURLShortcut = objShell.createShortcut(strDesktopFld &
"\Install-CoM-Applications.lnk")
'Name for Shortcut to add
objURLShortcut.Targetpath = "http://localhost:9595/webportal/webportal.exe"
'Path to icon
objURLShortcut.IconLocation = "C:\WINDOWS\system32\oobe\images\thanks8.png"
'Path for Shortcut
objURLShortcut.Save

Open control-panel,folder options,file types,edit.

You cannot, I think, use a PNG file as an icon. You must convert "thanks8.png" to an icon
file. That should work.

Does using an icon file (.ico) help?
