This action will create an Internet shortcut. These shortcuts point to a URL: when such a shortcut is executed, the default Web browser is opened to the URL specified by the latter.

DestinationURL | String | The URL the shortcut should point to. The Web browser will be opened to this URL. |

Example for ShortcutFilename:
To create an Internet shortcut on the desktop, for instance you can enter: %DESKTOPDIR%\My homepage.url. This will create an icon with the text "My Homepage" on the Windows desktop.
