The Easiest way to Create a Shortcut with Relative Paths

Submitted by Wooops_Phil on December 6, 2009 - 3:53pm

Since there´s no Tips & Tricks forum, I assume the better place to post may be here.

I´ve seen a lot of people asking how to create shortcuts with relative paths in windows, some say it´s just no supported etc etc At the end of the day there are several ways, like creating a windows shortcut files (.ink) or using a bat file wich can be converted to an exe with an icon file. Anyway non of both are ideal / have several disadvantages, so I´m going to share a method that works great for me and hopefully it may be useful for you as well.
