            Bug ID: 49498
           Summary: In file-open dialog, selecting .lnk shortcut picks
                    shortcut instead of going to target folder
           Product: Wine
           Version: 5.11
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
          Reporter: nyanpasu64(a)tuta.io
      Distribution: ---

In a Wine file-open dialog, if you double-click a shortcut to a folder (unsure
about file), it sends the shortcut to the program instead of navigating to the
folder.

OpenMPT is one app which expects you to open a .lnk file in a file-open dialog.
The way I found this bug is:

- Install OpenMPT on Windows or Wine.
- Open the View menu and click Setup.
- Click the Keyboard tab, and click "Import Keys...".

If you double-click "More Keymaps", Windows would go to the .lnk target
directory. But Wine returns the .lnk file from the file-open dialog.

Note that OpenMPT uses XP-style file dialogs on Wine because Wine's Vista-style
file dialogs are terrible.

On Wine, both XP/Vista dialogs don't traverse the .lnk file and instead return
the .lnk path. On Windows, both XP/Vista dialogs traverse the .lnk file.

MFC defines two types of dialogs with a similar C++ API. XP = Common File
Dialog (I think), Vista = Common Item Dialog (COM-based).

--- Comment #1 from Johannes <wine(a)sagagames.de> ---
More specifically, LNK files should only ever be returned by the file picker if
the OFN_NODEREFERENCELINKS flag is set (which OpenMPT of course does not set).
