MSFT - Do you Want to open this File (URL)

[Liquidfusion]

Hi. How can I stop this? Thanks!

This happens every time I try to open Vivaldi Urls saved to my Win 10 MSFT desktop.

@liquidfusion Not really a Vivaldi problem. But a quick search found this:

@liquidfusion Vivaldi generates broken desktop shortcuts, a old and known bug.

@pathduck - Thank you for your great energy and wisdom!!!!

@doctorg Should be VB-41011 "Link creation cast windows security alert due extra spaces in the URL file" if is not changed something in recent years ^^,

@hadden89 No, now the URL has no correct line ending (CR LF) in the file and Windows thinks that is not a valid shortcut.

@liquidfusion Is this bug:
VB-79801 "Dragging a link from the browser to the desktop on Windows10 works, but Windows always prompts with a security alert when you open it."
