    If you are thinking of making a setUp file. Use winRar , and compress the ".exe" file to SFX.
    In SFX ,there is also an option where you can tell to add shortcut and the location it should be placed.

    I used Uharc to get .uha file...
    and then extracting .uha accordingly in a particular drive but it seems a little complicated..
    I got the shortcut using vbs but still, extracting .uha at the place where i want is a pain!! :/
