Create shortcuts here fails
Posted: 12 Jul 2024 02:14
XYplorer v25.00.0200
I get the same behaviour on any EXE file on two different PCs, one running Win10Pro 22H2 and the other Win7Pro64b SP1
I wanted to put a temporary shortcut on the desktop to:
c:\windows\system32\sndrec32.exe
-so I used XYplorer to go to the system32 directory, find sndrec32.exe, right click, drag to desktop, Create Shortcuts Here.
What I get is a shortcut with these properties:
TARGET [ c:\Windows\Sysnative\sndrec32.exe ]
START IN [ C:\Windows\Sysnative ]
--which, of course, does not work.
This is a very fundamental part of the msWindows File Explorer, so I would expect it to work on XYplorer.
