Create a shortcut with parameters added to the program path

Question

Here\'s the code, it works if I right click on the new .Lnk and remove the quotes
from \"C:\\Windows\\System32\\control.exe /name Microsoft.Windowsupdate\"

Answer 1

The documentation on WshShortcut.TargetPath says:

This property is for the shortcut's target path only.
Any arguments to the shortcut must be placed in the Argument's property.

The fragment of a working code:

echo oLink.TargetPath = "C:\Windows\System32\control.exe" >> %SCRIPT%
echo oLink.Arguments = "/name Microsoft.Windowsupdate" >> %SCRIPT%

And the entire fixed code:

@echo off
Cls
set SCRIPT="%TEMP%\%RANDOM%-%RANDOM%-%RANDOM%-%RANDOM%.vbs"
echo Set oWS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") >> %SCRIPT%
echo sLinkFile = "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Weekly Maintenance\Windows Update.lnk" >> %SCRIPT%
echo Set oLink = oWS.CreateShortcut(sLinkFile) >> %SCRIPT%
echo oLink.TargetPath = "C:\Windows\System32\control.exe" >> %SCRIPT%
echo oLink.Arguments = "/name Microsoft.Windowsupdate" >> %SCRIPT%
echo oLink.Save >> %SCRIPT%
cscript /nologo %SCRIPT%
del %SCRIPT%
pause
