Hi

Have always found this fiddly but am getting nowhere. It seems impossible to
create multiple folders off "Start Menu / Programs". Final intention is to
add if/end conditions but can't get to the starting point of several folders
containing shortcuts.

In a clean 'starter project', visit shortcut visualiser, right-click
StartMenu/Programs, Add Folder, take the default (New Folder 1). Return to
script editor:

[ Create Shortcuts ]
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 1" to "Programs\New Folder 1" (Always
Install)

Back to shortcut visualiser, right-click StartMenu/Programs, Add Folder,
take the default (New Folder 2). Return to script editor:

[ Create Shortcuts ]
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 1" to "Programs\New Folder 2" (Always
Install)
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 2" to "Programs\New Folder 2" (Always
Install)

That looks wrong? Also, from the Script Editor, double-clicking & saving the
'New folder 1' line changes things to:

[ Create Shortcuts ]
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 1" to "Programs\New Folder 1" (Always
Install)
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 2" to "Programs\New Folder 1" (Always
Install)

Double-clicking & saving the 'New folder 2' line changes things back to:

[ Create Shortcuts ]
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 1" to "Programs\New Folder 2" (Always
Install)
::Create Program Folder "New Folder 2" to "Programs\New Folder 2" (Always
Install)

At all times the visualiser looks OK

Shortcuts
+Start Menu
+Programs
+New Folder 1
+New Folder 2

And "details" of the lines look OK too ( Location: Programs).

But building and running the installer seems to reflect what's visible in
the Script Editor (i.e. just one folder is created).

Attaching example script (but it's just a 'starter' plus what's described
above).

I've done this in the past but am getting nowhere now. I've probably
forgotten something. Or has something changed?


Thanks

Simon
