Program shortcut
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Hello, firstly thank you for open sourcing this!
What is the best way to access a Windows program once installed? Is there a way to create a shortcut for easy launching?
Thanks in advance!

Excellent question.
Please click the "Browse for Previous Installed Software" button. It will launch the file browser already in "drive_c".
From here, go to Users | Public | Desktop to find your Windows Desktop shortcuts.
You can also check Users | crossover | Desktop for more Windows Desktop shortcuts.
Also, you can directly browse inside Program Files and Program Files (x86) to find .exe files that have been installed, and launch them directly.
Selecting a file in this dialog simply enters it in the "Windows game (or software) to launch:" field. You may then add further command line parameters into this field before clicking Next to launch them. Remember to wrap file names and parameters in double quotes if required (this is done for you automatically when browsing visually).
Last but not least, you can click the drop-down arrow button in this same field to launch some pre-defined programs. wineboot is great to restart your Windows instance, for example.
