TIP
It would
be helpful if you created a BlueZone
Distribution Image first, before following this procedure.There are two types of desktop shortcuts that can be created:
A desktop shortcut that launches a non-configured BlueZone Session
A desktop shortcut that launches a pre-configured BlueZone Session
In this scenario, you can create a desktop shortcut that launches a non-configured BlueZone session. A standard Windows file dialog will be displayed listing the available BlueZone profiles (configuration files) to choose from. If no BlueZone profiles exist, the Define New Connection dialog will automatically be displayed, allowing the user to configure the host connection settings at that time.
In a default installation of BlueZone Desktop, only one desktop shortcut gets created. That's the shortcut for BlueZone Session Manager. If however, you would like to have a desktop shortcut that launches one or more BlueZone emulators, follow this procedure:
Navigate to where your BlueZone files are stored.
Locate the SETUP.INI file and edit it with Notepad.
Scroll down a bit and find the [Desktop Shortcuts] section.
Locate the desired BlueZone emulators and for each emulator you want a desktop shortcut created, change the No setting to Yes.
Save the changes to the SETUP.INI file.
Install BlueZone. Check to make sure that the desired desktop shortcuts have been created.
In this scenario, you can create a desktop shortcut that launches a BlueZone session along with an pre-configured BlueZone profile (configuration file). In order for this feature to work, you must create at least one BlueZone Profile along with an associated desktop shortcut. These files will have to be added to your BlueZone Distribution Image so that they will be available during the BlueZone installation process.
Prerequisites
You must be installing BlueZone from a BlueZone Distribution Image.
In SETUP.INI, under [Program Group] the UseGroup= entry must be set to Yes. Yes is the default value.
At least one BlueZone Profile (configuration file) must be included in the BlueZone Distribution Image that matches the .LNK file.
At least one BlueZone Session shortcut (.LNK file) must be included in the BlueZone Distribution Image that matches the BlueZone Profile.
TIP
It would
be helpful if you created a BlueZone
Distribution Image first, before following this procedure.
Install BlueZone Desktop using the default settings. Verify that you have installed all the BlueZone emulators that you wish to make shortcuts for. Verify that you have installed the BlueZone Session Manager.
For each desired shortcut, launch the appropriate BlueZone emulator, configure, save and name each session. The profile names you choose will also be the names that get assigned to the shortcut.
Launch the BlueZone Session Manager. An icon for each session you created will be displayed.
One by one, highlight
each session, and click the Create Desktop
Shortcut icon 
on the Session Manager ToolBar.
A desktop
shortcut will be created for each session, and placed on your desktop.
Locate the BlueZone Profiles you created for each session and save them to your BlueZone Distribution Image folder.
You can find them here: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\BlueZone\Config
Locate the shortcut files you created for each session and save them to your BlueZone Distribution image folder.
You can find them here: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Desktop
NOTE
Windows
does not display the file extensions of desktop shortcut files in Windows
Explorer. However,
if you use the Windows command prompt to display your files, the desktop
shortcuts will have a file extension of .LNK.
On a test machine, install BlueZone using your BlueZone Distribution Image. Verify that the desired desktop shortcuts get created and launch the desired BlueZone sessions.
In addition to being able to place a pre-configured BlueZone session shortcut on the desktop, you also have the option of adding the shortcuts to the BlueZone Program Group.
This is accomplished by in the SETUP.INI file.
Navigate to where your BlueZone files are stored.
Locate the SETUP.INI file and edit it with Notepad.
Scroll down a bit and find the [Desktop Shortcuts] section.
Locate CopyShortcuts2ProgramGroup=No entry and change the No value to Yes.
This will cause any BlueZone Session desktop shortcuts (.LNK) files that are present in the BlueZone Distribution Image, to be automatically added to the BlueZone Program Group during the installation process.
