Fix an issue where the Inno Setup installation package cannot create desktop shortcuts

Transferred from: http://yedward.net/?id=104

Yesterday want to put a Java program into EXE installation software, and then went to download the Inno Setup Software installation package, Inno Setup This software is very useful, but because I download the Chinese version, according to the wizard step to do is not to create desktop shortcuts, tossing a long time, Finally found a solution.

Here is a piece of code that I automatically generate after I use Inno Setup to package software:

123	[Tasks]Name: "desktopicon"; Description: "{cm:CreateDesktopIcon}"; GroupDescription: "{cm:AdditionalIcons}"; Flags: unchecked; OnlyBelowVersion: 0,6.1Name: "quicklaunchicon"; Description: "{cm:CreateQuickLaunchIcon}"; GroupDescription: "{cm:AdditionalIcons}"; Flags: unchecked

Above this section of code, the first paragraph represents the creation of a desktop shortcut, the second paragraph represents the creation of the Quick Launch bar. Where flags:unchecked means default is not selected, we change to Flags:checkablealone to indicate default is selected. Let's change the code to achieve the following effect:

Figure 1: Additional shortcuts

To achieve the effect shown in 1, we changed the code to look like this:

123	[Tasks]Name: "desktopicon"; Description: "{cm:CreateDesktopIcon}"; GroupDescription: "{cm:AdditionalIcons}"; Flags: checkablealoneName: "quicklaunchicon"; Description: "{cm:CreateQuickLaunchIcon}"; GroupDescription: "{cm:AdditionalIcons}"; Flags: checkablealone

This is basically OK, I generally packaged software, only like to add "create desktop Shortcut", do not like to add "Create Quick Launch bar Shortcut", so the second code can also not.
