How can i hide the target from a shortcut, in an administrator account? I just dont want others to see where the location of the file is. Thanks.

Hi, take a look at this thread http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=525204&page=1476 HTHEdoardo Benussi - Microsoft MVP Management Infrastructure - Systems Administration https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/Profile/Benussi Windows Server Italian Forum Moderator edo[at]mvps[dot]org

This thread talks about Micr.Office shortcuts. What i did is the following (and i suppose is the best sollution): I created an executable file (which will call my file to open) and placed it to the position the shortcut was. For the creation of the executable file i used AutoIT3 (its freeware). http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/index.shtml You will find additional instructions on how to use it on the forum pages.

Hello Giannis, As far as I know, there is no native way to hide target in shortcut, you may need to use 3-party software or MSDN forum for help.
