This also happens to me.
put a pull request together to try and fix this.
https://github.com/mongodb-js/electron-squirrel-startup/pull/34
for now I pull all the functions out into my main.js and set target to something like this:
path.resolve(path.dirname(process.execPath),'..',app-${package.version}
,path.basename(process.execPath))
this may be different for you though depending but thats why the pull request above will let you pass in your own path.
@jpiepkow You Rock! It' seems odd to me that this issue has not been resolved, the default settings for this package create broken shortcuts.

I fixed it by replacing:
var target = path.basename(process.execPath);
(line 18)
with:
var target = process.execPath;
Does this will be fixed ?

This worked for me
The created shortcut to my electron app is not working because it's pointing to the wrong directory
Properties of the desktop shortcut: Target: C:\Users\Win10H64\AppData\Local{app_name}}\dist.exe Start in: C:\Users\Win10H64\AppData\Local{app_name}}\app-0.0.1 The dir where the exe resides: C:\Users\Win10H64\AppData\Local{app_name}}\app-0.0.1\dist.exe
I'm using the following: electron: 1.4.15 electron-packager: 8.5.1 electron-winstaller: 2.5.2 electron-squirrel-startup: 1.0.0
I'm guessing that electron-squirrel-startup is the culprit in this issue. I found something similar here: https://github.com/Squirrel/Squirrel.Windows/issues/900
Any help would be appreciated
