Symptoms
During the installation (Update) for a new XpressPOS
Module, such as Marvin or Andersen, an error is thrown:
"
Unable to
create shortcut"
Cause
This is often caused by limited user rights.
Windows Script Host (WSH) must
be loaded on
your PC to process these scripting commands. Usually it is. However, some IT departments
prohibit its use.
