Maybe it's impossible, but that is what happens. I gave her a shortcut
that
launchs a VBScript sitting in a shared folder. Everyone has the same
shortcut. There is only one script file.

Then her machine is broken. Unfortunately, the only cure seems to be to
reload her entire machine from scratch because the fso.CopyFile method does
not open a GUI to ask the user for input (as previously mentioned).
