Creating a desktop shortcut via UNC?

Hello,
I'm still learning about the numerous features available to us using our K1100 and K2000...So please understand I'm a newbie.

I have an .exe on a network share that I would like to push to each users desktop. In trying to use the Desktop Shortcut Wizard, I enter the UNC path \\servername\subdir\subdir\app.exe, however I receive an error regarding a "Valid Target"
I assumed target in this case is the application, but something isn't quite correct.

Any suggestions?

The Desktop wizard is able to create shortcuts if you give a path to your executable \\server\CoupleOffFolders\yourapp.exe it will create that one. It even handles the spaces by adding " and ". But this will only work if the mapping is available.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
