Q:
Is there a way to push an icon with ZENworks that links you to a folder on the
server? I know it can be done easily with applications, but what about
folders?
What I want to do is create a shortcut on the desktop for staff to link them
to a staff shared folder to save them clicking.
Any ideas?
A:
Yes, you can do that. A shortcut is just a file. Snapshot it.
Or, you could run Explore.exe as the program and the UNC path as the parameter.

- it does not answer the question. How do you PUSH the icon to the desktop
- Try the following command: %*WINDIR%\explorer.exe /root,\\server\path\path This will open up explorer with the specified path as the root so that users can not move upwards past that point in the file system.
