    NTVDM64 and PIF to LNK - possible?
    « on: November 23, 2018, 06:19:36 AM »
    Hi!

    I have installed NTVDM x64 on 64-bit Windows 10 allowing me running 16-bit DOS software.
    Some programs have PIF what was used also in Windows 3.x. Also if I want to create LNK to EXE, it always creates PIF.
    I know that's in NTVDM normal, but outside NTVDM it works not and displays message that program is not compatible with current Windows and cannot run.

    I tried to create links to them, but it always copies PIF file in selected location.

    I want to ask if is possible to create simple LNK (link/shortcut) file to any DOS program or LNK from PIF. Maybe it is possible to create link to DOS program by calling NTVDM with command line options, but don't know how.
    Is it possible?

    Thank you for all.
