Pure python-code for backup/restore of windows 32/64 bits desktop icons positions

Hi! Details/requirements: * Read of all shortcuts (name, targetpath, position x, position y) on a 32bits and 64bits windows OS * Set the position(x,y) of the shortcuts * No closed 3party dll's. Use only dll's that are shipped with windows. * Written in python language The first example in my list, is a perfect example of what I want to be done in python code. So if the finished pythoncode does the same thing, it would be perfect. Examples: * Desktop Icon Save and Restore Command (works in both 32bits and 64bits windows) [login to view URL] [login to view URL] save /f "[login to view URL]" [login to view URL] restore /f "[login to view URL]" * Autoit has api that does can do it, but only works in 32 bits os(it's unable to retrive the name of the shortcut): #include Local $desktopHWN = ControlGetHandle("Program Manager","",1) $itemindex = 2 ; Count shortcuts MsgBox(4160, "Information", "Item Count: " & _GUICtrlListView_GetItemCount($desktopHWN)) ; Set position _GUICtrlListView_SetItemPosition($desktopHWN,$itemindex,0,0) ; Get text of shortcut - GUICtrlListView_GetItem-api works only in 32bits windows $aItem = _GUICtrlListView_GetItem($desktopHWN, $itemindex,1) MsgBox(4160, "Information", "Item 2 Text: " & $aItem[3])
