Desktop Shortcuts

★★ Novice

Trying to create a desktop shortcut (not being able to do it from game library is a massive problem, especially considering how many people have asked for it) but trying to do it from files if I add "STAR WARS Battlefront" to desktop (which is the most obvious file that could be a .exe) if I try to launch it it tells me that "core/activation64.dll" is missing. This is the 4th time I'm spending half a day reinstalling a game just to get a desktop shortcut.

Hey all, I'm locking this thread as it is quite old.
