How to change value of %APPS%?
Posté: 09 Décembre 2010, 16:24Hi
If we see the properties of Liberkey created shortcuts, they are pointing toward %APPS%\....
By default, %APPS% is present parallel to LiberKey.exe.
On portable drive, I want to have a separate folder for my portable apps. These might also include applications not downloaded using Liberkey and so I want to use %APPS% to that location so that LiberKey.exe would be able to resolve the Path of shortcut (for my own apps) properly.
I want to do that because I don't want to copy my own portable apps in LiberKey\Apps folder.
and on different PCs, the drive letter is different
How can I change the value of %APPS%?
Best regards
Farrukh

%APPS% is a variable. Its value changes when the path of your LiberKey changes.
Yes, \LiberKey\Apps shouldn't be used for personal applications.
It's the goal of the folder MyApps.
Shortcut path from this forlder will be automatically converted with the variable %MYAPPS%
You can found some other variables in this topic.

Now that's a good feature for using other variable for applications not managed by LiberKey.
Only one restriction, I want to expand. Can I point %MyApp% to my own folder (other than LiberKey\MyApp folder?
Thanks

I tried this:
%LBKROOT%\..\..\Portable Softs\Desktop Utils\Calculators\Eigenmath\Eigenmath.exe
but no luck.
However, I just got to know about this variable:
%Drive%
and this is resolved to the Drive letter where LiberKey.exe is present.
So I started using this variable to link to my own apps.
Thanks lot
