When checking with VirusTotal the 64-bit WindowsShortcutArrowEditor.exe has two positives.

 

The x86 has one.

 

I suppose they are false positives but it would be nice if you informed about this on your download site or - even better - prevented this by changing your exe files.

 

I'll wait testing your app till VirusTotal shows zero hits.

 

Cheers!

This is old post from 2012, so this issue may have been fixed in a newer version of the software.

    • Steam Summer Sale 2025 is here offering weeks of massive discounts for PC gamers by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe It is time to jump into another Steam Summer Sale. The 2025 edition of the yearly massive sale at the biggest PC gaming store on the market has just kicked off, and it is touting thousands of discounts for everything from the oldest classics to the newest releases and everything in between. The Steam servers predictably wobbled for a while at the launch of the sale, but things finally seem to be calming down enough to browse the latest sales. The front page is the place to be for anyone looking for recommendations, with it putting the spotlight on fresh games every day. However, keep in mind that the discounts themselves will not be changing and will remain static throughout the sale. Some recent blockbusters like Metaphor: ReFantazio, Monster Hunter Wilds, Sid Meier's Civilization VII, Black Myth: Wukong, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Blue Prince, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, and much more are currently discounted. Valve has also brought back the special "Deep Discounts" section, letting Steam users find the most deeply discounted games quickly straight from the front page. The page has a selection of "all-time greats" with 85% to 95% cuts to their standard prices. This time, it includes titles like Black Mesa, Little Nightmares II, Kerbal Space Program, Steins Gate, Furi, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Star Wars Battlefront II, Robocop Rogue City, and much more for just a few dollars each. As for the duration, the Steam Summer Sale of 2025 will be open for business until July 10, giving all of you two whole weeks to try and keep your wallets closed tight. As always, be sure to read our Weekend PC Game Deals special this coming Saturday to check out the biggest highlights from the sale. If you miss this store-wide promotion, Valve's next major sale will land this September as part of a new time slot for the Steam Autumn Sale. Head over here to see the complete 2025 sales roadmap for the platform.
    • Great way to get an entire physical model of the products (i.e. end users) and better market them...definitely not something I'd want on ANY of my personal devices, but can be useful in retail shops for sure.
    • Hi all. ISP pushing me from 800Mbps to  1200Mbps, however, I want to buy my own modem. Theirs have been a bit wonky, would rather just handle it myself. Data capped at 1.2TB, haven't gone over yet (although pretty close at times), paying $15 rental, some have suggested a DIY solution. Anyway, I'm in need of a few upgrades and need some suggestions. My onboard LAN is capped at 1Gbit (I219-v and a Killer E2500), choose your poison? Anyway, an add-on NIC might be in order, not sure what to go with. Then there's the modem and router. A lot of these modems are very close in price, some supporting 2.3 - 2.5Gbit, others a flat 1Gbit that wouldn't let me touch my 1200Mbit that I'm paying. Boils down to a Netgear CM3000 (for below cost due to built up rewards) or Motorola B12. Then of course, there's my router. I bought a Nighthawk X10 a while ago for $10 at thrift, before this whole upgrade thing came up. Its ports are capped at 1Gbit, but it DOES have a 10Gbit SFP+ port. I could possibly get a NIC that has sfp+ port, or a switch that has 2.5Gbit ports. I'm the only wired PC in the house, everything else is wifi, no foreseeable new wired connections in the far off future. Or, I could get an RS100 router that would let me use my 1200Mbit connection. I've been subscribed for about 6 years, so have paid about $1080 in rental since then. It's too bad I didn't DIY since the beginning, it would have been paid of long ago -_- better late than never I guess. What's your thought on this?
