Shortcut lnk opens folder with "Open With" prompt
G'Day forum,
I'm getting a Open With prompt when my shortcut link is trying to open a mapped network folder.
Is there a way around this?
I've added a WkDir property with the network path and speced it in the Shortcut table in the WkDir column. Does this property need to be [WkDir] or just - WkDir.
TIA
Regards
Wayne

Thanks Kim,
Just testing it now. Should my argument in the shortcut table be in quotes? or my NET_FOLDER property value?
I'm still getting the Open with prompt.[8D]

You could try something like Setting a Shortcut to open a root directory.
Instead of specifying [INSTALLDIR], define a property that holds the value of the mapped network folder and use that instead (ex. [NET_FOLDER]).
