Question:

Is it possible to delete a shortcut that was created by a different
setup installer ?

I want to delete the shortcut with SetupBuilder!

Yes, absolutely no problem. A "shortcut" is nothing more or less than a
file. Just use the "Delete File(s)..." script function to remove the
shortcut during the installation process.

If I have a shortcut on the desktop "example.lnk" - I can not find out
with setupbuilder, what target have the shortcut - right?

See the "Get File Info (Shortcut Target)" script function. This lets you
retrieves the target from a shortcut (.lnk).
