The old tweaker, Xteq, helped me avoid shortcut prefixes ("Shortcut to ..."). But I don't know how to avoid/eliminate the suffix, "*.lnk"
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Is this what your looking to do?

Also see disable "shortcut to" prefix. This step involves making changes in the registry. Always back up your registry before making any changes.
