You didn't mention which version of WiX you are using.
I am still using version 2, and I have an additional "LongName"
attribute on the shortcut. If you are using version 2 as well (and I
suspect you're not), you may want to try adding one of those.
I also notice that you seem to have spaces in front of the file ID and
Name. I don't know if that is a) intentional, b) a gift from your (or
my) email package, or c) a typo. I doubt it's causing a problem, but you
never know!
Regards,
Richard

Subject: [WiX-users] Shortcut pointing toward product name
I am trying to create a desktop shortcut, and its working except that
the shorcut's target is the Product Name. What am I missing? A google
search told me to add the keypath attribute to the file, but it still
doesn't work. Here is my wxs code... thanks
