I've written an application using VB.NET 2003 and packaged it with a
deployment project. When I use the setup program to install the
application, however, it doesn't work. More specifically, the shortcut
placed in the Start Menu doesn't work.
I've noticed that the shortcut is strange. Unlike a normal shortcut, I
can't see the command it is supposed to issue. This makes it very
difficult to debug the problem. Furthermore, I suspect that the problem
may be specifically related to the unconventional implementation of the
shortcut, and I think if I could get a normal shortcut installed in the
Start Menu, everything will be okay.
Therefore, my questions are these: What is this strange shortcut? How
do I see what command it is issuing? Is there any way to make VB.NET
generate a normal shortcut instead of one of these strange shortcuts?
