Your report doesn't make sense, cinnamon-desktop code isn't responsible for the desktop or menu.
It would help if you could point me to the code that is responsible for menu and link creation . Your comment does nothing to address the issue and is no help
@Tsoccerguy3 Your issue is because your using a crappy windoze file system, you will need to mount it with execute perms.

My setup works great with exception to the following . I Wiped SSD and 1 TB Hard Drive , clean installations on UEFI/GPT-based hard drive partitions SSD partition 64 gig Win10 NTFS , 64 gigs Mint 18.3 with 2gig swap / 20 gig root EXT4 / 42 gig home EXT4 1 TB Hard drive GPT NTFS used as Data Drive Environment : Dual boot Mint 18.3 Cinnamon and Win 10 x64
Manually launching programs on extra internal or external drives work fine ! Adding programs to the Mint Menu , that are on the 1 TB GPT NTFS Data drive , do not launch . The links that are created by the Mint Menu or the desktop launcher , do not take into consideration a dual boot situation where a larger data drive on a laptop will be shared by windows 10 and Mint . Also creating a desktop launcher to the 1 TB data drive or a manual link on the desktop do not work .
The links created by Mint should take into consideration the shared security on a shared data drive , be it internal or a USB / eSATA external drive .
