Shortcut properties

[Selsmoran]

Hi.

On the desktop XP SP3 the context menu (rightclick the shortcut)
for e.g. a shortcut the selection Open is missing.
Search is there instead.

Created a shortcut for the C-drive on the desktop
but Search selection is on top but on any other
machine the Open selection is there.


How can I get Open selection back?

Thanx in advance.
