LNK shortcut creation bug
« on: May 08, 2018, 18:50:15 »
I observe this bug for long ago. When I create shortcut the extension is filled wrong (not LNK but source file extension) and shortcut is not created.
Step 1. First screen where we select shortcut type, and it is filled wrong out-of-the-box.



Step 2. Bummer!



If we re-select LNK type again (through selecting another type) the extension is populated correctly.

So you have default on-start shortcut type not LNK, but smth else. Yes? I my shortcut creation windows always starts with LNK

It remember what type was used last.
So might be an issue with it starts up with last used setting.
Workaround is to change type to something else and then back.  (fast then editing text field)

That is what I do now, but that is only workaround, and bug need to be fixed.
