Hi

I have two folders that are similar. One called, for example:
website

The other is:
website.com

The shortcut is set to go to \website, yet it always opens \website.com

I have managed to fix it on the Desktop, but in Start8, in Config, I cannot remove it completely as a link, and then add it fresh.

I've tried that. Trust me I have tried that.
I've worked with Windows since Win 3.1 so I tend to know what I am doing.
But this just won't work.

One folder is called site, and the other folder is site.com.
If I tell it to go to site, via 'target', it still goes to site.com.
