    Something that can be achieved programmatically not necessarily makes it a programming question. If your question is about programming, what you have already tried, and what doesn't work? – Sriram Sakthivel Mar 10 '15 at 09:21

  • Please understand my problem , I will write it down once again with steps 1) I have created an application with its desktop shortcut from Visual Studio Installer. 2) Desktop Shortcut Created successfully. 3)Now , as I right click on this shortcut for open file location , It reaches to Desktop Path (means it shows me this shortcut path) 4)As If we click on any desktop shortcut for open file location it shows its directory path I want the same . So how to do this – Pravin Wadichar Mar 10 '15 at 09:33

Click right-mousebutton, then properties and inspect the "Start in" property in the Shortcut tab. This should give you the path to the application.
