I changed the code as follows:
<!-- Desktop Shortcut Test -->
<Directory Id="DesktopFolder" Name="Desktop"/>
<Directory Id="CommonAppDataFolder" Name="ProgramDataFolder"/>
<Component Id="ComponentBSStrageShortcut"
Guid="{8436995c-2e76-4030-b92d-c6b4bc243c43}">
<Shortcut Id="ComponentBSStrageShortcut"
Directory="DesktopFolder"
WorkingDirectory="APPLICATIONFOLDER"
Target="[CommonAppDataFolder]/MTK/BSStrage"
Name="BSStrage"
Show="normal"/>
<RegistryValue Action="write"
Key="SOFTWARE/MTK/BS"
Root="HKCU"
Type="string"
KeyPath="yes"
Value="ApplicationFolderName"/>
</Component>
Now it places a shortcut on desktop, however there is a problem. It actually
creates a Shortcut to "BSStrage" thinking that it is an application.
However, "BSStrage" is actually a folder and I need to create a shortcut to
this folder. So how can I tell Wix that BSStrage is a folder and I need a
shortcut to it so that I'll be able to open it by double clicking it?
