Virtual folders for batches - execution directory

Aah, my mistake, you already mentioned the shortcuts in your opening post... :0
I think I now see what you mean. I created a batch file "C:\4NT\cwd.bat", which simply displays the work (startup) directory:

Code:

@echo off
cd
pause >nul

If I double click on it in explorer, it says C:\4NT
If I drag it to TLB in order create a shortcut, and then launch it from there, it says C:\4NT
If I create a virtual folder to C:\4NT and then run the batch file from the virtual folder, it says C:\Documents and Settings\username

So the work directory is indeed incorrect when launching programs from a virtual folder. But I think this is quite easy to fix, since it's probably just one ShellExecuteEx statement with a missing parameter...
