I've created a .bat file that runs the network exe, but it does not allow it to be made a shortcut on the taskbar:

Within my runme.bat file: cmd /c start w:\programs\app.exe

That does not work.

I've also tried creating a shortcut of the w:\programs\app.exe onto the desktop, but Explorer won't allow that either to be made a shortcut on the taskbar.

Besides the obvious of copying the exe to a local drive, how to I get this shortcut created?

    You can put .LNK shortcuts on the task bar, but not .BAT shortcuts. So far as I remember the latter has not been possible.

  • @John But if I create a .LNK file on the desktop, it cannot be added to the taskbar.
