Link2
Applies To: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2
Link2 specifies the URL or file path for the second of two links that describe a recommended online backup service in the Windows® Server Backup menus.
Before an online backup service is installed, Windows displays a description of a recommended online backup service. This includes one or two description lines and one or two links that provide more information.
The link is added to the resource DLL file that the ResourceDll setting specifies. The icon may be localized for different regions. For information about how to create localized versions for these settings, see Using the MUI with Applications.
The link in the Resource DLL file must be a text string. It must begin with http:// or file://. For example, the link may resemble the following:
https://fabrikam.com/CloudBackupService-FullVersion.exe.
