Description

The Shell Link Resolver component (foo_lnk.dll) adds support for Windows shortcut files, also known as shell link (.lnk) files.

When a shortcut/.lnk file is added to the playlist, it is replaced by the target file it points to.

As of component version 1.3.1, the target must be a file. If the shortcut points to a folder, the .lnk file itself will be added to the playlist, and won't be playable.
