All my portable applications are stored in "d:\Portable Programs\" folder (including "Geek.Menu" folder). When trying to add application shortcut from this folder I have an error: "Cannot create file "". The filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect". When I'm showing/hiding icons new shortcut comes visible, but it cannot be groupped and disappears after program restart.

    Exactly how are you trying to add the shortcut- is it a right click on the menu, then "Add Shortcut"?
    Can you include the exact path of the shortcut you are trying to add?
    What version of geek.menu are you experiencing this on?

    Same error in both versions (stabe and experimental) when making a click into menu space and choosing Add shortcut. Operating system windows 7, installed on a USB. Error appears for any exe I try to add. Sometime the links appear when pressing Show Hidden icons but only up to next program start. Dragging programs into menu also doesn't work probably not intended. Any tip as now the program is unusable?
