    Steam shortcuts


    Hey so i've had this bug where steam shortcuts (for games obvs) donthave an icon and on trop of that when i try to run them, they don't run as a .exe but as if i wanted to print them, so for example when i open any steam shortcut instead of running it, it open the print menu.

    Did anybody else run in a similiar problem?

    Thanks in advance

    :)

  3. Shortcut Problem

    Not Stream.....STEAM. This is Steam:

    Welcome to Steam

    I buy all my games through Steam, and I can only play them through Steam. My shortcuts were working up until I tried to install your Internet Explorer. Now, Steam cannot create any shortcuts on my desktop.

    Please, DO NOT SUGGEST that I open these games with any other application other than Steam because that WILL NOT WORK.

    Please, DO NOT SUGGEST that I forgo using shortcuts.

    Screensaver shortcut


    I did this"

    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.Steam shortcuts :)
