Adding Desktop Shortcut choice
Hi all,
I want to add some Desktop choices after the installation is complete.

For example I want to launch Microsoft Word:
Start -> All Programs ->Microsoft Office -> Microsoft word

Similarly for Microsoft Excel,Microsoft Powerpoint etc?

Is there a way to add desktop shortcut choice in NSIS?

Regards
Pradeep

Use nsDialogs to create a custom page. Put a checkbox on that page. Set the checkbox value to a variable, and use that variable in your section.

See your nsDialogs readme:
NSIS\Docs\nsDialogs\Readme.html

And your nsDialogs example:
NSIS\Examples\nsDialogs\example.nsi
