Hi all,

IS12 Basic MSI Project.

I would like a add a HyperLink to our support web site under Start Menu | Programs | Our Company Name

I can add shortcuts to program files but I cannot seem to figure out how to add a HyperLink.

Any help appreciated.

TIA

Greg

I would create a .url file that includes a hyperlink to your support web site, install the .url file and create a shortcut to the file.

Created the URL file but you cannot make a shortcut to it. Files listed for shortcuts are either EXE, OCX or DLLs etc. Not URL files.

Can anyone help.

TIA

You could just copy the .url file to the start menu, as it *is* the shortcut.
