Visual Studio Installer - Optional Icons.

Hi,

Does anyone know a way to make a desktop or start menu icon optional in the VS Installer? I have the shortcuts in their appropriate locations in the File System Editor, but it seems that because the shortcuts themselves don't have a "Conditional" property, the custom dialog (radio buttons) I have in the UI editor to give the user an choice as to whether they want a desktop/start menu icon or not...doesn't work.

The radio buttons, either 2 screens of 2, or 1 screen of 4 (if it's 2 dialogs, the first gives the choice for a desktop icon, second for a start menu icon...and if it's 4 radio buttons on the one dialog, then it's along the lines of: "Both Desktop and Start Menu", "Only on Desktop", "Only on Start Menu", or "No Desktop or Start Menu Icon") uses a property such as DESKICON and MENUICON or ICONS. In the File System Editor, the only Conditional property I can set is on the "User's Desktop" folder itself. So, for example, if I have just one dialog for the choices, I have the Conditional property of the folder (not the shortcut, because it doesn't have a Conditional property) as "[ICONS]=1 OR [ICONS]=2" (just without the quotes, and 1 is for both, 2 for just desktop, 3 for just start menu, 4 for neither). I've tried encapsulating it a number of ways in parentheses and without brackets, but that doesn't change anything, and I've even tried just "[ICONS]=1" but no matter what I do, it always puts an icon on the desktop and on the start menu.

If anyone has any suggestions, they are most welcome,
Thank you.

I'm having the exact opposite problem. I create a shortcut in the installer and drag it to the desktop becuase that's what I want however when I try tioadd an icon to that shortcut, although I can select the icon file, it greys out the OK button and I can't update that property on the shortcut.

Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?
