Describe the bug Launchy shows arrow / shortcut (small square overlay) on top of executable when the icon comes from .lnk file

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Add a .lnk file to your executable in a folder where Launchy's catalog
  2. Rebuild your library
  3. Type in name so Launchy shows you the icon and you'll see

Expected behavior No arrow / shortcut icon should appear overlaid over the executable icon.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • Windows 10
  • Launchy Version: 3.1.7

Additional context Thank you for this app ❤️ I switched over from the old Launchy for my 4k resolution - but icons now show arrow / shortcut which is ugly 😅

Noticed the same issue. The original Launchy didn't show the shortcut arrow overlay.

This issue seems to conflict with #86 . Some users want the link file(*.lnk) icon, other users want the target file icon. Maybe I have to add an option, so users can choose what they want.

Oh, I see. Yeah, an option would be amazing 🙂.
