Batch File

[Prayder]

My batch files keep creating a duplicate icon when they are ran. Instead of replacing the existing icon it just adds another one to my desktop. How can I fix this? Here is what one of my files look like:

ECHO OFF
@echo "Waiting for Position Matrix to shut down"
c:
cd\
mkdir databases
C:
cd\databases
del Inventory_mgr.mdb
o:
CD\WWP Shared\Databases
ECHO ON
echo "PLEASE WAIT WHILE FILES ARE BEING COPIED!!!"
echo "This box will close upon completion!!!!"
ECHO OFF
copy Inventory_mgr.mdb C:\databases
copy FREE3OF9.ttf c:\databases
CD\WWP Shared\Databases\icons
Copy Inventory_mgr.ico c:\databases
CD\WWP Shared\Databases\shortcuts
copy Inventory_mgr.lnk c:\databases

rem *******************************************
rem Window 7 fix
c:
cd\
cd databases
copy Inventory_mgr.lnk %userprofile%\Desktop

rem *****************************************
rem windows xp
c:
cd \
cd documents and settings
cd all users
cd desktop
copy c:\databases\Inventory_mgr.lnk
C:\databases\Inventory_mgr.mdb

rem ************************************************

Yes, that's exactly what your batch file does. In fact, it seems to add two copies to your desktop; one to your desktop, and one to All Users desktop.

ok..... So I removed everything below the windows 7 fix but still though when I run it... it still adds an additional icon instead of replacing the icon... How can I resolve that?

Maybe delete the old one before you copy the new shortcut?
