Copying a file to the All Users Desktop

(imported topic written by mellis200091)

I’m sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn’t find anything. We have an application that runs as a stand-alone exe file that we would like to rollout to all of our PCs and place in the c:\documents and settings\all users\desktop location. What is the best way to accomplish this? It is simply one file.

Thanks!

mellis2000,

So is it that you need to run the EXE or copy it to the all users folder?

If its the later, then thats as easy as creating a fixlet, and in the action script portion…

download “http://bigfixserver:port#/uploads/folder/yourexe.exe”

(run the continue if magic from here http://forum.bigfix.com/viewtopic.php?id=2051)

move “_download/yourexe.exe” “c:\documents and settings\all users\desktop”

++++

Thats it …
