How to open a folder

I see now that we are describing two different situations. Yes, your code opens a window immediately. But I am talking about the application desktop item.

Still the shortcut wants a program to be specified before opening. And again, if I open the shortcut, edit it in any manner and close it, it works fine.

Section "MainSection" SEC01
MessageBox MB_YESNO "Would you like to have a shortcut on your desktop?" IDNO +2
Call DesktopShortcut

Function DesktopShortcut
SetOutPath $appdata ;"random" outdir
CreateShortCut "$DESKTOP\${DESKTOP_NAME}.lnk" "$INSTDIR\${PRODUCT_NAME}" "" "${MUI_ICON}"
FunctionEnd
