2019 post about sorting Steam shortcuts into their OWN folder with no other shortcuts present - AUTOMATICALLY

PLEASE ANSWER STARDOCK!!

from Stardock Forums

It is now 2019 and we are on version 3 of Fences and yet, Steam shortcuts have still NOT been addressed.

 

They are their OWN entity.

What they are not:

1. A URL.

2. A traditional Program shortcut

3. A dcoument

4. A media shortcut/file

5. A folder

6. Sorted in Fences as a Steam shortcut

 

What they are:

1. Game links

2. STEAM game links

3. Links used to launch STEAM games installed on a system

4. STEAM games stored in the STEAM folder with STEAM shortcuts on the desktop used to launch STEAM games

As noted in the video, that is indeed how Windows sees them.  What I did to manually sort them was 'apply rules now'.  After, again, as shown in the video, any subsequent shortcuts created from Steam go to that Fence. 

Please be be mindful of how you reply - I want to help you, not edit any more of your replies so they do not contain unhelpful language.

Kindest regards,
