Shortcut on desktop when disc inserted


Recommended Posts

Well im trying to make a script when you input a disc into the drive, a shortcup pops up on the desktop. And when you take the disc out, it removes the shortcut (like in linux).

This is what I have so far.

$var = DriveStatus("G:\")
$D = DriveGetLabel("G:\")

while 1
If $var = "NOTREADY" Then
    FileDelete(@DesktopDir & "\" & $D & ".lnk")
Else
    If $var = "READY" Then
    FileCreateShortcut("G:\",@DesktopDir & "\" & $D & ".lnk")
    EndIf
EndIf
wend

It kind of works but it doesnt. The drive is set to G: but all the drives would be nice.

Any ideas?

Incorporating some For...Nexts along with 2 dimesnsional arrays should do it.

For those who are asking questions, look in the help file first. I'm tired of people asking stupid questions about how to do things when 10 seconds in the help file could solve their problem.[quote name='JRowe' date='24 January 2010 - 05:58 PM' timestamp='1264381100' post='766337'][quote name='beerman' date='24 January 2010 - 03:28 PM' timestamp='1264372082' post='766300']They already have a punishment system for abuse.[/quote]... and his his name is Valik.[/quote]www.minikori.com
