5 Program shortcut doesn't work in 1.0.3 as it did in 1.0.2 - ID: 1565654
Last Update: Comment added ( damonc )

I have an install that used the default Install Windows
Shortcut for the main program - the target file is
<%PogramExecutable%> (a .bat file). It used to work
fine with 1.0.2, but with 1.0.3 (and I suspect the link
behaviour I asked for), it doesn't create the correct
type of shortcut. Putting the executable explicitly
with <%InstallDir%>/my.bat makes no difference. Other
shortcut actions work fine.

Cheers
Paul.

Can you send me the details of what link name worked and
which one didn't (with substitution already done)? I want
to see what was failing, so I can dig around and find it.

It appears to create a shortcut file with filetype .lnk3 -
playing around, another time it was .link?3, where the ? was
a non-printable char. I removed all the variable
substitutions in the shortcut name and shortened it - and
everything is fine now. This is on WinXP. Sounds like a
string overrunning it's expected length somewhere.

What kind of shortcut is it creating? Is it creating one at
all? Are the parameters wrong? Which version of Windows
are you running on?
