Users get an icon placed on their desktop at initial logon
I am now using the following settings in my master_preferences (which I deploy on every update):
"create_all_shortcuts":false,
"do_not_create_any_shortcuts":true,
"do_not_create_desktop_shortcut":true,
"do_not_create_quick_launch_shortcut":true,
"do_not_create_taskbar_shortcut":true
I am not seeing a desktop shortcut beeing created for now, but the new behavior is that there is an icon pinned to the taskbar. After adding ""do_not_create_any_shortcuts":true" is seems fixed.
It must be in the "distribution" part of the master_preferences file. My complete file is this:
{
"distribution":{
"msi":true,
"system_level":true,
"verbose_logging":true,
"msi_product_id":"2D0AE8FB-D52E-3D51-845F-FF1A7FFBB09E",
"allow_downgrade":false,
"create_all_shortcuts":false,
"do_not_create_any_shortcuts":true,
"do_not_create_desktop_shortcut":true,
"do_not_create_quick_launch_shortcut":true,
"do_not_create_taskbar_shortcut":true
}
}Hi and thanks!
Yes, adding "do_not_create_any_shortcuts":true prevents creating Desktop shortcut for user when no profile present, initial running of Edge. Good. (Before that other three settings didn’t stop this to happen.)
More thanks, Alar.
