Configuration: Hide the .lnk extension #521

Details

Hide the .lnk extension by adding the NeverShowExt value to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile string type (REG_SZ). It is too noisy.

Ana06 commented 9 months ago

It should be <registry-item name="Hide the .lnk extension" path="HKCR:\lnkfile" value="NeverShowExt" type="String" data=""/> but not sure if it is needed.

Just tested it, it is still needed it.
