Hello again,
yep, usually when you open the context menu of standard desktop shortcuts the target (the executable with path) is shown in its properties. But not in the properties of e. g. Word. The dialog is different. Is there a name of these "special" shortcuts? The setting are stored in the registry somewhere.
My aim is to get infos like via FileGetShortcut.
Any hints are highly appreciated!
Many thanks and greetings

If your command yields a null value, you could look in the Windows registry, such as in the following.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths
