Hi there,

I created deployment project that installs my windows application. it
also should create icons in Start->programs and on the Desktop. But
Visual studio allows only to create icons in USER'S Desktop and
Programs folder.
How to do it for ALL Users? The application is going to be installed
by administrator and users will need to have the Icons when they are
logging in

Thanks
 
You could add a special folder by right clicking > Add Special Folder
Custom Folder. Then set the defaultlocation to C:\Documents and
Click to expand...
Settings\All Users\Desktop
