Win Advanced Launcher lnk support problem
#1
Sad 
Hi,

I am trying to set up an advanced launcher to display my pc games,

I have watched the youtube video by angelscry and followed it many times,

Each time I get the same problem, the advanced launcher does not recognize the file type of my .lnk shortcuts?!?

I have shortcut support on, but i think it might be a problem with the modify items extensions?

I am running frodo and the newest version of advanced launcher,

Please help, Its sending me crazy!

Confused

I Have noticed that my computers name is PHAT 2,

Do you think the space in the computer name could be a problem?

and not

Code:
"%rom%"
