remove "shortcut to" from shortcuts

[Raaza]

hi,

Without installing Autopatcher, is there any way to remove "shortcut to" prefix from Shortcuts?

[Vishal Gupta]

Start -> RUN and type regedit, nevigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer

In right-side pane, create a BINARY value link and set its value to 00 00 00 00
