Créer un raccourci sur le bureau

Je souhaite créer un raccourci pointant vers un fichier EXE, sur le bureau, en utilisant .NET Framework 3.5 et en s'appuyant sur une API Windows officielle. Comment puis je faire ça?

Avec des options supplémentaires telles que raccourci clavier, description, etc.

Au début, Projet > Ajouter une référence > COM > Modèle d'objet hôte de script Windows.

using IWshRuntimeLibrary;

private void CreateShortcut()
{
  object shDesktop = (object)"Desktop";
  WshShell shell = new WshShell();
  string shortcutAddress = (string)shell.SpecialFolders.Item(ref shDesktop) + @"\Notepad.lnk";
  IWshShortcut shortcut = (IWshShortcut)shell.CreateShortcut(shortcutAddress);
  shortcut.Description = "New shortcut for a Notepad";
  shortcut.Hotkey = "Ctrl+Shift+N";
  shortcut.TargetPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System) + @"\notepad.exe";
  shortcut.Save();
}

Raccourci URL

private void urlShortcutToDesktop(string linkName, string linkUrl)
{
    string deskDir = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);

    using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(deskDir + "\\" + linkName + ".url"))
    {
        writer.WriteLine("[InternetShortcut]");
        writer.WriteLine("URL=" + linkUrl);
    }
}

Raccourci d'application

private void appShortcutToDesktop(string linkName)
{
    string deskDir = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);

    using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(deskDir + "\\" + linkName + ".url"))
    {
        string app = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
        writer.WriteLine("[InternetShortcut]");
        writer.WriteLine("URL=file:///" + app);
        writer.WriteLine("IconIndex=0");
        string icon = app.Replace('\\', '/');
        writer.WriteLine("IconFile=" + icon);
    }
}

Si vous souhaitez utiliser certaines fonctions spécifiques à l'API, vous souhaiterez utiliser le IShellLink interfaceainsi que le IPersistFile interface(via COM interop).

Voici un article qui explique en détail ce dont vous avez besoin pour le faire, ainsi qu'un exemple de code.

Voici un morceau de code qui n'a aucune dépendance sur un objet COM externe (WSH) et prend en charge les programmes 32 bits et 64 bits:

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes;
using System.Text;

namespace TestShortcut
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            IShellLink link = (IShellLink)new ShellLink();

            // setup shortcut information
            link.SetDescription("My Description");
            link.SetPath(@"c:\MyPath\MyProgram.exe");

            // save it
            IPersistFile file = (IPersistFile)link;
            string desktopPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);
            file.Save(Path.Combine(desktopPath, "MyLink.lnk"), false);
        }
    }

    [ComImport]
    [Guid("00021401-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")]
    internal class ShellLink
    {
    }

    [ComImport]
    [InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)]
    [Guid("000214F9-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")]
    internal interface IShellLink
    {
        void GetPath([Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] StringBuilder pszFile, int cchMaxPath, out IntPtr pfd, int fFlags);
        void GetIDList(out IntPtr ppidl);
        void SetIDList(IntPtr pidl);
        void GetDescription([Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] StringBuilder pszName, int cchMaxName);
        void SetDescription([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszName);
        void GetWorkingDirectory([Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] StringBuilder pszDir, int cchMaxPath);
        void SetWorkingDirectory([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszDir);
        void GetArguments([Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] StringBuilder pszArgs, int cchMaxPath);
        void SetArguments([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszArgs);
        void GetHotkey(out short pwHotkey);
        void SetHotkey(short wHotkey);
        void GetShowCmd(out int piShowCmd);
        void SetShowCmd(int iShowCmd);
        void GetIconLocation([Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] StringBuilder pszIconPath, int cchIconPath, out int piIcon);
        void SetIconLocation([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszIconPath, int iIcon);
        void SetRelativePath([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszPathRel, int dwReserved);
        void Resolve(IntPtr hwnd, int fFlags);
        void SetPath([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszFile);
    }
}

Vous pouvez utiliser cette classe ShellLink.cs pour créer le raccourci.

Pour obtenir le répertoire du bureau, utilisez:

var dir = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);

ou utilisez Environment.SpecialFolder.CommonDesktopDirectorypour le créer pour tous les utilisateurs.

Sans référence supplémentaire:

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

public static void Create(string fileName, string targetPath, string arguments, string workingDirectory, string description, string hotkey, string iconPath)
{
    IWshShortcut shortcut = (IWshShortcut)m_type.InvokeMember("CreateShortcut", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, m_shell, new object[] { fileName });
    shortcut.Description = description;

}

Pour créer un raccourci sur le bureau:

    string lnkFileName = System.IO.Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "Notepad.lnk");
    Shortcut.Create(lnkFileName,
        System.IO.Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System), "notepad.exe"),
        null, null, "Open Notepad", "Ctrl+Shift+N", null);

J'utilise simplement pour mon application:

using IWshRuntimeLibrary; // > Ref > COM > Windows Script Host Object  
...   
private static void CreateShortcut()
    {
        string link = Environment.GetFolderPath( Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop ) 
            + Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + Application.ProductName + ".lnk";
        var shell = new WshShell();
        var shortcut = shell.CreateShortcut( link ) as IWshShortcut;
        shortcut.TargetPath = Application.ExecutablePath;
        shortcut.WorkingDirectory = Application.StartupPath;
        //shortcut...
        shortcut.Save();
    }

Utilisez ShellLink.cs sur vbAccelerator pour créer votre raccourci facilement!

private static void AddShortCut()
{
using (ShellLink shortcut = new ShellLink())
{
    shortcut.Target = Application.ExecutablePath;
    shortcut.WorkingDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath);
    shortcut.Description = "My Shorcut";
    shortcut.DisplayMode = ShellLink.LinkDisplayMode.edmNormal;
    shortcut.Save(SHORTCUT_FILEPATH);
}
}

EDIT: Je ne recommande plus cette solution. S'il n'y a toujours pas de meilleure méthode que d'utiliser le moteur de script Windows, utilisez au moins la solution de @ Mehmet qui appelle le moteur directement plutôt que de créer un script en texte brut en mémoire.

Nous avons utilisé VBScript pour générer un raccourci. Il n'a pas besoin de p / Invoke, d'interopérabilité COM et de DLL supplémentaires. Cela fonctionne comme ceci:

• Générer un VBScript au moment de l'exécution avec les paramètres spécifiés de la méthode CreateShortcut C #
• Enregistrez ce VBScript dans un fichier temporaire
• Attendez que le script se termine
• Supprimer le fichier temporaire

Voici:

static string _scriptTempFilename;

/// <summary>
/// Creates a shortcut at the specified path with the given target and
/// arguments.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="path">The path where the shortcut will be created. This should
///     be a file with the LNK extension.</param>
/// <param name="target">The target of the shortcut, e.g. the program or file
///     or folder which will be opened.</param>
/// <param name="arguments">The additional command line arguments passed to the
///     target.</param>
public static void CreateShortcut(string path, string target, string arguments)
{
    // Check if link path ends with LNK or URL
    string extension = Path.GetExtension(path).ToUpper();
    if (extension != ".LNK" && extension != ".URL")
    {
        throw new ArgumentException("The path of the shortcut must have the extension .lnk or .url.");
    }

    // Get temporary file name with correct extension
    _scriptTempFilename = Path.GetTempFileName();
    File.Move(_scriptTempFilename, _scriptTempFilename += ".vbs");

    // Generate script and write it in the temporary file
    File.WriteAllText(_scriptTempFilename, String.Format(@"Dim WSHShell
Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject({0}WScript.Shell{0})
Dim Shortcut
Set Shortcut = WSHShell.CreateShortcut({0}{1}{0})
Shortcut.TargetPath = {0}{2}{0}
Shortcut.WorkingDirectory = {0}{3}{0}
Shortcut.Arguments = {0}{4}{0}
Shortcut.Save",
        "\"", path, target, Path.GetDirectoryName(target), arguments),
        Encoding.Unicode);

    // Run the script and delete it after it has finished
    Process process = new Process();
    process.StartInfo.FileName = _scriptTempFilename;
    process.Start();
    process.WaitForExit();
    File.Delete(_scriptTempFilename);
}

Voici une méthode d'extension (testée), avec des commentaires pour vous aider.

using IWshRuntimeLibrary;
using System;

namespace Extensions
{
    public static class XShortCut
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Creates a shortcut in the startup folder from a exe as found in the current directory.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="exeName">The exe name e.g. test.exe as found in the current directory</param>
        /// <param name="startIn">The shortcut's "Start In" folder</param>
        /// <param name="description">The shortcut's description</param>
        /// <returns>The folder path where created</returns>
        public static string CreateShortCutInStartUpFolder(string exeName, string startIn, string description)
        {
            var startupFolderPath = Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup.GetFolderPath();
            var linkPath = startupFolderPath + @"\" + exeName + "-Shortcut.lnk";
            var targetPath = Environment.CurrentDirectory + @"\" + exeName;
            XFile.Delete(linkPath);
            Create(linkPath, targetPath, startIn, description);
            return startupFolderPath;
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Create a shortcut
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="fullPathToLink">the full path to the shortcut to be created</param>
        /// <param name="fullPathToTargetExe">the full path to the exe to 'really execute'</param>
        /// <param name="startIn">Start in this folder</param>
        /// <param name="description">Description for the link</param>
        public static void Create(string fullPathToLink, string fullPathToTargetExe, string startIn, string description)
        {
            var shell = new WshShell();
            var link = (IWshShortcut)shell.CreateShortcut(fullPathToLink);
            link.IconLocation = fullPathToTargetExe;
            link.TargetPath = fullPathToTargetExe;
            link.Description = description;
            link.WorkingDirectory = startIn;
            link.Save();
        }
    }
}

Et un exemple d'utilisation:

XShortCut.CreateShortCutInStartUpFolder(THEEXENAME, 
    Environment.CurrentDirectory,
    "Starts some executable in the current directory of application");

Le premier paramètre définit le nom de l'exe (trouvé dans le répertoire courant). Le deuxième paramètre est le dossier "Démarrer dans" et le troisième paramètre est la description du raccourci.

La convention de dénomination du lien ne laisse aucune ambiguïté quant à ce qu'il fera. Pour tester le lien, double-cliquez dessus.

Note finale: l'application elle-même (cible) doit avoir une image ICÔNE associée. Le lien est facilement capable de localiser l'ICÔNE dans l'exe. Si l'application cible a plus d'une icône, vous pouvez ouvrir les propriétés du lien et remplacer l'icône par une autre trouvée dans l'exe.

J'utilise la référence "Windows Script Host Object Model" pour créer un raccourci.

et pour créer un raccourci sur un emplacement spécifique:

    void CreateShortcut(string linkPath, string filename)
    {
        // Create shortcut dir if not exists
        if (!Directory.Exists(linkPath))
            Directory.CreateDirectory(linkPath);

        // shortcut file name
        string linkName = Path.ChangeExtension(Path.GetFileName(filename), ".lnk");

        // COM object instance/props
        IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShell shell = new IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShell();
        IWshRuntimeLibrary.IWshShortcut sc = (IWshRuntimeLibrary.IWshShortcut)shell.CreateShortcut(linkName);
        sc.Description = "some desc";
        //shortcut.IconLocation = @"C:\..."; 
        sc.TargetPath = linkPath;
        // save shortcut to target
        sc.Save();
    }

private void CreateShortcut(string executablePath, string name)
    {
        CMDexec("echo Set oWS = WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Shell') > CreateShortcut.vbs");
        CMDexec("echo sLinkFile = '" + Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("homedrive") + "\\users\\" + Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("username") + "\\desktop\\" + name + ".ink' >> CreateShortcut.vbs");
        CMDexec("echo Set oLink = oWS.CreateShortcut(sLinkFile) >> CreateShortcut.vbs");
        CMDexec("echo oLink.TargetPath = '" + executablePath + "' >> CreateShortcut.vbs");
        CMDexec("echo oLink.Save >> CreateShortcut.vbs");
        CMDexec("cscript CreateShortcut.vbs");
        CMDexec("del CreateShortcut.vbs");
    }

J'ai créé une classe wrapper basée sur la réponse de Rustam Irzaev avec l'utilisation de IWshRuntimeLibrary.

IWshRuntimeLibrary -> Références -> COM> Modèle d'objet hôte de script Windows

using System;
using System.IO;
using IWshRuntimeLibrary;
using File = System.IO.File;

public static class Shortcut
{
    public static void CreateShortcut(string originalFilePathAndName, string destinationSavePath)
    {
        string fileName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(originalFilePathAndName);
        string originalFilePath = Path.GetDirectoryName(originalFilePathAndName);

        string link = destinationSavePath + Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + fileName + ".lnk";
        var shell = new WshShell();
        var shortcut = shell.CreateShortcut(link) as IWshShortcut;
        if (shortcut != null)
        {
            shortcut.TargetPath = originalFilePathAndName;
            shortcut.WorkingDirectory = originalFilePath;
            shortcut.Save();
        }
    }

    public static void CreateStartupShortcut()
    {
        CreateShortcut(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly()?.Location, Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup));
    }

    public static void DeleteShortcut(string originalFilePathAndName, string destinationSavePath)
    {
        string fileName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(originalFilePathAndName);
        string originalFilePath = Path.GetDirectoryName(originalFilePathAndName);

        string link = destinationSavePath + Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + fileName + ".lnk";
        if (File.Exists(link)) File.Delete(link);
    }

    public static void DeleteStartupShortcut()
    {
        DeleteShortcut(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly()?.Location, Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup));
    }
}

Pour Windows Vista / 7/8/10, vous pouvez créer un lien symbolique à la place via mklink.

Process.Start("cmd.exe", $"/c mklink {linkName} {applicationPath}");

Vous pouvez également appeler CreateSymbolicLinkvia P / Invoke.
