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.

Looks like Lupo, who has taken many PortableApps.com releases and, *ehem*, rebranded them as his own, is at it again. This time, he's taken C.A.F.E. Mod and just changed the name to "Coffee" and made it seem like his own work from its webpage.

We're experiencing a delay in new open source releases due to issues at SourceForge.net. The ability for us to release new software has been down since Wednesday afternoon and appears it will be down until Monday morning when they are back in the office. In addition, SourceForge.net itself has been having intermittent outages nearly every day during this time.
