Suddenly problems trying to "Create Shortcut"
Posted: Sat Jun 29, 2019 2:49 pm
Lately I seem to be having a problem with the "Create Shortcut" function (More tools-Create Shortcut)
The shortcut gets created, but does not work. If I click on it, nothing happens (except for a small spinning circle for a few seconds and disappears)
The reason it doesn't work can be seen in the properties. The "Target" is pointing to "chrome_proxy.exe" as in the following example:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Slimjet\chrome_proxy.exe" --profile-directory=Default --app-id=okkolgldfknecfjnhhglfopimelbaceh
It should point to Slimjet.exe as in the following example: (from an older, working shortcut)
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Slimjet\slimjet.exe" --profile-directory=Default --app-id=bcdaicdlffaahimncapcmjecfmknnnpc
I'm not sure why now the shortcuts are being created with the incorrect path, perhaps I've changed something in Slimjet to cause this? I uninstalled Chrome to see if it helped, but it did not.
I'm on: Version 23.0.5.0 (based on Chromium 74.0.3729.108) (Official Build) (32-bit)
