    How do I turn off the warning query on desktop .url files?


    some of these files do not cause a query.

    There should be a tick-box on the query to turn it off.

    These are not random urls. they are used often. They don't need an extra query step every time I use them. How are they any different to a standard IE desktop shortcut???


    Actual "real person" technical support is not available, so this is the next best, or possibly better, forum.

    :)
