Xp CreateShortcut problem

Hi there,

I'm having this weird situation: with the same installer, in Win XP installation doesn't create some startmenu shortcuts, and in Vista and Win 7 it creates these shortcuts.

I'm using CreateShortCut command for creating sohortcuts.

Does anybody know what seems to be the catch?

Thanks in advance

Somebody mentioned something similar a day or two ago - check if you're running into the same issue. Summary: Make sure the folder in which you create the Shortcut exists.
Are you a developer who uses NSIS to distribute your application? Are you a Winamp plug-in developer who wants to use NSIS to distribute your plug-in? Have suggestions for other people like you? This is the place.

Thanks for the answer, but it seems that i just needed to add SetShellVarContext all above CreateShortCut part.

Problem solved

Thanks
