    Shortcut problem (relative path)


    Hi everyone,

    Someone know how I could change my shortcut path, regardless of the machine ?

    My picture is in C:\Users\Manon\Desktop\perso\1.png. I made some research, I have to change the "Start in" in the properties of the shortcut.

    But what I have to write in ?

    Thanks for your advices, help. Have a nice day.

    Welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

    You are not being very clear about what you want to do. I assume you want do something with a picture located in Users\Desktop. Do you want to use this picture for your Desktop or to have as your User picture.

    Thanks for your answers.

    I'll use %userprofile%\Desktop\perso\1.png in "Start in" properties.
