    How to disable securitywarning at opening file?
    « on: December 29, 2018, 05:34:34 PM »
    Hi!

    I created shortcut of original file (simple LNK).
    When I'm opening file directly (no matter if is executable, it is also in case of text file) all is working ok.
    When I'm opening file by shortcut, it displays always security warning:

    Want you to open this file?
    Name: xxxx.lnk
    Publisher: Unknown
    Type: Link
    Source: X:\xxxx\xxxx.xxx
    [Open]               [Cancel]
    Files from internet can be useful, but this file type can damage your computer. If you don't trust this source, don't open this file.

    I know that it causes unknown publisher, but really don't know how to set publisher in file properties.
    BTW: Nice comment or item in properties can be Downloaded from - and location there...

    How ti disable this security warning?

    If you set it to "run as administrator" under advanced shortcut properties of the shortcut does it still do this?

      Yes.

      Some files (shortcuts to executables) working properly after setting "Run As Admin" in compatibility and/or advanced properties.
      But most (or all) links to other files (TXT, etc.) are blocked even if is this set.
      The same behavior like with LNK is also with URL shortcuts.
