whoo what a title.

Basically when you create a shortcut to something it's titled "shortcut to xyz.abc"

I want it to just say "xyz."

I'm doing this for like 200 files so it'd save a ton of time. And they're all going in a seperate folder so I won't have any same-name issues.

Anyone?
 
Run this registry edit...

Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer]
"link"=hex:00,00,00,00
