This should help you get started:
This will put a shortcuts on everones Desktop pointing to the users Documents folder.
$container = Get-ChildItem -Path C:\Users
ForEach ($upath in $container){
$sfilepath = $upath.FullName + "\Documents"
$scutpath = $upath.FullName + "\Desktop"
$SourceFilePath = $sfilepath
$ShortcutPath = "$scutpath" + "\Documents.lnk"
$WScriptObj = New-Object -ComObject ("WScript.Shell")
$shortcut = $WscriptObj.CreateShortcut($ShortcutPath)
$shortcut.TargetPath = $SourceFilePath
$shortcut.Save()
}
If you know the location you need to use, you can use Get-Content
