Overview:

Pre-requisites:

Create a bundle to distribute PinItem.vbs:

1. Login to your ZCC console

• Create a new Windows Bundle

• (Empty Bundle)

• Enter Bundle name e.g. Copy PinItem.vbs

• Navigate to Actions / Install

• Add Action - Install File(s)

• Upload PinItem.vbs to the ContentRepo and select %WinDir% as destination directory
  
  
  

  

  
  Click to view.
  
  
  
  
  
  

  

  
  Click to view.
  
  

• Assign this Bundle to all your workstations or where needed (I am distributing it as part of the machine setup, so that every workstation has the PinItem.vbs)

Create a bundle to Pin Excel 2010 to the Taskbar and Startmenu:

1. Create a new Windows Bundle

• (Empty Bundle)

• Enter Bundle name e.g.Pin Excel 2010

• Navigate to Actions / Install

• Add Action - Run Script
  
  
  

  

  
  Click to view.
  
  

• In Script to Run - select "Specify a file on managed device" and %windir%\PinItem.vbs

• Script Parameters - use one the following parameters:
  
  /taskbar /item:"%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\Microsoft Excel 2010.lnk"
  
  or
  
  /item:"%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\Microsoft Excel 2010.lnk"
  
  the first example pins Excel 2010 to the taskbar, the second to the startmenu.

• Path to Script Engine - specify C:\Windows\System32\cscript.exe

• Under Advanced - select "Run as logged in user"
  
  
  

  

  
  Click to view.
  
  

• Save changes and publish the Bundle

• Assign Bundle to Users
  
  
  

  

  
  Click to view.
  
  
  
  I usually specify Schedule Type: Event / User Login under the Bundle Distribution Schedule and select "Install Immediately after Distribution" so that the bundle is active when the user login.
