The problem isn't with Windows, it's with the SDK. You're trying to launch the SDK after you've pinned it to the super bar. Same goes for Hammer, you still cannot launch hammer directly without the sdk, and only steam can open the SDK. So unpin the SDK from your super bar, along with hammer, and open them the old fashioned way.
