  1. FOLDER shortcut not working correctly


    When I create a shortcut on the desktop of a folder not a file when I click to access the folder, it does not go to the folder but to the Windows Explorer that shows the files and icons on the desktop, the funny thing is that This does not happen with two external hard drives, that is, the shortcuts to access a FOLDER on the external hard drives behave WELL, can you give me a solution?greetingsJordi Urgell

  3. Win 10 - Shortcuts in Start Menu folder not appearing in menu or Search Results

    Hi Michel,

    The error that you encounter seems to be caused by a background process that's not working correctly. To isolate your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • Are you getting the error when searching for the shortcut or when opening the sub folder on the Start Menu?
    • What are the troubleshooting steps that you've tried to resolve your concern?

    We're looking forward to your response.

    FOLDER shortcut not working correctly

    Screensaver shortcut

    I did this"
    Search Results

    I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

    • Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
    • Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
    • Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
    • Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.FOLDER shortcut not working correctly :)
