By default changes to the Quick Access links are not persistent.
To make Quick Access links persistent, you have to follow these steps:
- Create a PowerTag on the app/server/cluster where you want the Quick Access links to be persistent:
!GRACEFULDISCOSEC=5
This is the precondition to run the StartupGracefulDisco.ps1 script (see: Graceful application closing) - Create a PowerShell script with the name StartupBefore.ps1in %PROGRAMDATA%\Cameyo with the following content:
$QuickAccess = New-Object -ComObject shell.application if ($env:CAMEYO_QUICKACCESSPERSISTENCE -eq "0") { $quicklinks = Get-Content $env:USERPROFILE\QuickAccess.json | ConvertFrom-Json $existing = $QuickAccess.Namespace("shell:::{679f85cb-0220-4080-b29b-5540cc05aab6}").Items() | Select Name foreach ($link in $quicklinks | Where IsFolder -eq $true) { if ($existing.Name -notcontains $link.Name ) { $QuickAccess.Namespace($link.Path).Self.InvokeVerb("pintohome") } } }
This will restore the saved Quick Access icons upon session start
- Create a PowerShell script with the name StartupGracefulDisco.ps1 in %PROGRAMDATA%\Cameyo with the following content:
$QuickAccess = New-Object -ComObject shell.application $QuickAccess.Namespace("shell:::{679f85cb-0220-4080-b29b-5540cc05aab6}").Items() | Select Name, Path, IsFolder, IsFileSystem| ConvertTo-Json | Out-File $env:USERPROFILE\QuickAccess.json
This will save all Quick Access links upon session disconnection
