I love this little app! It's a capability that Windows should have.

Attempting to add a shortcut to a folder causes an Unhandled exception.

Hello, Maybe opening a folder more simply can be a user request. For the moment being, I had to open the Guide folder.

I created a .Bat file (it is also possible with a script, with a slightly different syntax), that contains this: "C:\windows\explorer.exe" /n, "C:\Users\TG\Guide"

and as you guess, in TaskbarGroups, the shortcut launches this batch.

Well, in fact, on Edit Group, if you double click on a shortcut, you see that you can give a working directory and an argument. This can simplify things, you make a shortcut to explorer, and give the arguments you see in my batch. Do not forget /n with the comma, in front of the path to the folder.

I presume that for most people, it will be much more simple to use a batch or a script.

I have a pull request to display the name of the launched file as a tooltip, in this case the name of a dedicated script can be more explicit than explorer.
