Does it run properly for any of invoke places (search, all programs, pinned programs, find-exe-path-and-run)? What if you hold ctrl+shift when invoking it (elevating)? What if you right-click it and select Open? What if you do it with keyboard and enter key? Search - No All programs - No Pinned programs - No Run... - Yes Explorer - Yes Elevated - No Right-click + Open - Yes * Keyboard - No I eventually found that the shortcut didn't list its target .exe, but even when I pinned the actual application .exe to Start menu and could see the .exe in the shortcut properties, it still doesn't run from StartIsBack. Feels like the SIB shortcut is somehow damaged or incompatible (even when created brand new). When I tried to open one of the files from its jumplist, the program actually starts and displays a file-opening dialog, but right after that goes once again to the background with no way to switch to it. (It actually doesn't have any background capabilities, it's a Word-like program) * once I fixed the shortcut to actually have the .exe destination, Right-click+Open stopped working.
