How to create a shortcut using commands in Windows XP?

echo  >>a.url

echo URL=c:\windows\system32\notepad.exe >>a.url

echo IconIndex=29 >>a.url

echo IconFile=C:\windows\system32\shell32.dll >>a.url

@echo off

if exist "%1.url" echo 链接 "%1.url" 已创建！ & goto :eof

if exist "%~f2" echo 目标 "%~f2" 不存在！ & goto :eof

echo  > "%1.URL"

echo URL=%~f2 >> "%1.URL"

echo IconIndex=0 >> "%1.URL"

echo IconFile=%~f2 >> "%1.URL"

Internet shortcuts are in text format, you can refer to it.

There is no command in Windows XP specifically for doing this. You can use other tools.
1. There is a command called shortcut.exe in Windows 95 or Nt 4.0 Resource Kit. (Recommended)
2. Third - party Shortcut.exe
3. Use vbs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim WSHShell, fs
Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set fs = WScript.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Function MakeDesktopShortcut( name, target )
Dim Shortcut,DesktopPath,StartupPath
DesktopPath = WSHShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
Set Shortcut = WSHShell.CreateShortcut(DesktopPath & "\" & name & ".lnk")
Shortcut.TargetPath = target
StartupPath = fs.GetParentFolderName( target )
If fs.FolderExists( StartupPath ) then
Shortcut.WorkingDirectory = StartupPath
End If
Shortcut.Save
End Function

MakeDesktopShortcut "Shortcut to Notepad", "C:\Windows\Notepad.exe"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

         strDesktop = WshShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")		'获得桌面目录

         set oShellLink = WshShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktop & "\qq.lnk")   '快捷方式存放目录及名称

         oShellLink.TargetPath = "C:\Program Files\Tencent\QQ\CoralQQ.exe"  '指向的可执行文件

         oShellLink.WindowStyle = 1		'运行方式

         oShellLink.Hotkey = "CTRL+SHIFT+F"  	'快捷键

         oShellLink.IconLocation = "C:\Program Files\Tencent\QQ\QQ.exe, 0" '图标

         oShellLink.Description = "qq"   			'备注

         oShellLink.WorkingDirectory = "C:\Program Files\Tencent\QQ\"  '起始目录

         oShellLink.Save                                        '创建快捷方式

You can refer to (url=http://www.cn-dos.net/forum/viewthread.php?tid=20183&fpage=1&highlight=%E5%BF%AB%E6%8D%B7%E6%96%B9%E5%BC%8F%2B3742668) or refer to the vbs method upstairs, and give a comment:

set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

         strDesktop = WshShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")		'Get the desktop directory

         set oShellLink = WshShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktop & "\qq.lnk")   'Shortcut storage directory and name

         oShellLink.TargetPath = "C:\Program Files\Tencent\QQ\CoralQQ.exe"  'Target executable file

         oShellLink.WindowStyle = 1		'Run mode

         oShellLink.Hotkey = "CTRL+SHIFT+F"  	'Hotkey

         oShellLink.IconLocation = "C:\Program Files\Tencent\QQ\QQ.exe, 0" 'Icon

         oShellLink.Description = "qq"   			'Remark

         oShellLink.WorkingDirectory = "C:\Program Files\Tencent\QQ\"  'Start directory

         oShellLink.Save                                        'Create shortcut

fsutil file createnew C:\test 0

rundll32.exe appwiz.cpl,NewLinkHere C:\test

You can try this under XP:

fsutil file createnew C:\test 0

rundll32.exe appwiz.cpl,NewLinkHere C:\test

The system will prompt to create a shortcut under C:\
