Shibbyland Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Hi All, I've finally upgraded to an Nvme drive solely for DCS. I moved the files over to the new drive and altered the shortcuts to direct them to the new drive. However, when I uninstalled DCS from the drive my OS is on, I lost all my shortcuts. How can I get them back, particularly the ones in the start menu such as for repair and update? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAXsenna Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Do yourself a favour, and start using Skatezilla's excellent launcher/updater app, and you'll have no need for any shortcut. Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shibbyland Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 Ok thanks, but lets just say I want to get my start menu shortcuts back, how do I do that? I can launch or update DCS by entering the 'bin' folder but I can't see an option to repair. I'd like to add Eagle Dynamics to my start menu so that I can update or repair the game without launching it. I've tried redownloading to pick up those missing items but as I already have the install on my drive, it won't let me do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
