Would this not work:

code:
If exist("%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\MS Word.lnk")
   shell "cmd.exe /c copy msword.lnk %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\msword.lnk"
Endif
I mean, that's just a guess. I think I've seen the %USERPROFILE% env variable used elsewhere, but it ought to be OK.

Someone slap me if I'm talking rubbish, because this is completely untested.
