    When I right click a folder or select File|New in Explorer there
    is no option for creating a new Shortcut, only new Folder.

    Any ideas?

    Found one thing out. When I run Explore as follows:
    'C:\Windows\explorer.exe ,/e,/root,C:\' the new 'Shortcut'
    is missing from the File|New and the context menu. But when
    I run Explorer without any command line switches the new 'Shortcut is there.

    Anyone know why this is so??
