I'm in the process of upgrading my software from Python 2.7 to 3.7 now
that wxPython has been migrated to 3. As part of a procedure for
upgrading an end user's own installation I check for it's location via
the desktop shortcut that Innosetup created during the original
installation.
I have a procedure for doing this that worked/works fine with Python 2.7
that is very similar to the one published in
/http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i/read-a-shortcut.html/.
Neither mine nor Tim's works under Python 3.7 (I haven't checked any
other version of 3). With Tim's version, when the line
name, _ = link.GetPath (shell.SLGP_UNCPRIORITY)
is executed, after a delay it responds with /aborted (disconnected)/ and
the program terminates, as does mine.
My knowledge of Python - Win32 interaction is extremely limited so
anything anyone can tell me about this would be valuable.
