Placing the short-cut on your desktop should work on both installs;but I could never get it to work on windows 8.
To clarify: I can get SHCMRD to work with a short-cut on the desktop and start SH3 without any problem. Since I always start SH3 with CMDR this is no problem.
I suspect it is my anti virus that prevents SH3 from starting.
SH4 should also be able to start from the desktop, but I don't play it a lot so I always want to mess with the mods and I find it easier to just go to the thumb drive.
