Hi Friedrich,
So then I wouldn't even be able to just include a preformatted .lnk in my installer and manually (well programmatically) edit the target then?

You can't see those options on all shortcuts, just the ones that point to a console program - which is what this particular installer is for. So I'm searching the net for a way to create my own shortcut programmatically and found this snip-it(http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/.../10421448.aspx), but it might just be a bit over my head. I'm trying to avoid the user having to change these things manually after installation on a win10 computer.
