Disable Shortcut Text For Shortcuts In Windows 10
When you create a new shortcut, Windows 10 appends the "- Shortcut" text to its name. With the batch script i have created you can disable the "- Shortcut" suffix for any shortcuts you create.
Please copy/paste the batch script codes to Notepad and name it as DisableShortcutSuffix.bat.
