Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but a 154 page thread is difficult to navigate: The Lnk launcher doesn't seem to be working for me with Steam games.
I used Steam's "Create desktop shortcut" feature to generate shortcuts for my games, placed them all in a folder, and set up AEL to open them with the Windows LNK Launcher.
While the shortcuts themselves work perfectly fine if I run them myself, AEL fails every time. In the logs it mentions "OSError: [WinError 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect". Yet if I copy and paste the exact path the log file says it's using into a command prompt, it still works without any problems.
Anything I've done wrong with the launcher? Or any alternative I could try?
