Deleting icon from Desktop in MI
I have a batch file setup to delete our old VPN software and install our new VPN software and add a new shortcut. Everything is working great within the batch file besides deleting the old shortcut from the desktop in MI. Is there a trick to get this to work in MI? If I run in cmd it works just not within my batch in MI.
del "%userprofile%\Desktop\VPN Client.lnk"
Thanks

This is because you MI is started in system context and %userprofile% is resolved to C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\
Fortunately DEL command allows to use a wildcard, so you can remove the shortcut from each user's profile with just one command:
DEL "C:\USERS\*VPN Client.lnk" /S /F /Q
