The new Windows CE Internet Explorer missing icon

The newly released Internet Explorer for Windows CE comes without a shortcut on the desktop. Annoying and funny that Microsoft missed that (and did not fix it via a QFE).

Not only they did not place a shortcut, but they also did not set an icon for the new application. This means that placing a regular shortcut will look odd since the shortcut takes the icon from the executable it points to.

I am adding a link to a subproject that adds an application with the IE icon that launches the new IE. The subproject also places a shortcut on the desktop.

The subproject is not built in case the component for the new IE is not chosen.




No warranty is given in any way. The code is supplied as is.
