How To Create A .EXE

I would like to know how to create a .EXE for a shortcut that is on my desktop. I want to use me Task Scheduler to start this program and I need the .EXE for this. THANKS!

Assuming that your shortcut runs the program that you want, I doubt that you want to "create" the executable, as it's already there.

Right click on the shortcut and select Properties. Click on the Shortcut tab and the Target line shows what program is being called and with what parameters. Copy the entire line and put it in your Task Scheduler.

Another way to do it is to prepend the complete path to the shortcut name and append ".lnk" to the shortcut name and just call the shortcut from your scheduler.
