I've build a setup in VFP6.0 on my WindowsNT machine.
After installing, an entry is created in the start\programs\ popup from the start button.

An entry pointing to the folder of my application is available.
But only the folder is showing not the exe.
So you can't just click on the exe so it runs it, instead the folder opens where the exe is installed.

So normally Fix creates the application folder in the start\Programs folder an puts a 'shortcut' to the exe in that folder.
For any reason not clear to me Fox won't do this.

The exe is set as PM item in the setup Wizard.
What else can be wrong.

For the PM item I specified the %s option to have it installed in the application's folder specified by the user during setup.
