Shortcuts created with wrong path. #276

After running the GPTH tool on my takeout, the default option was to have albums create shortcuts. This worked, however the shortcuts all have incorrect paths. They seem to have assumed the photos would be dumped to C: rather than the output path. I attached a screenshot below.

The attached script was created with copilot and run successfully in Powershell ISE to correct folder shortcuts for users that opt to download all files into a single folder (not by month) and have a shortcut to albums (folders)

Rename the attached .txt file extension as .ps1, fix $searchPath and $newPrefix paths and it should be good.

The gpth-windoza.exe script rocks!! Fix_Album_Shortcuts_for_some_users.txt
