script needed to copy a folder to all users desktop, set the attribute to hidden, and then make a shortcut to the exe in that folder.

Asked by aantonik in Windows Batch Scripting, Active Directory

Tags: Microsoft, Windows 2000 Server AD, SP4, script needed

I have Windows 2000 server with Active Directory.
I need a script that will copy a folder from a network share to the all users desktop, give the folder 'hidden' attribute, and make a shortcut to the launch file in that folder.
The attrib command seems to be for files only.  I need the folder to be hidden on the all users desktop.
Then I need to create a shortcut that has the target location set for the launch file on each computer that the script copies the folder to.
I can get the folder on the all user's desktop and that's about it.  I am using a .bat file.
