Description
The Shell Link Resolver component (foo_lnk.dll) adds support for Windows shortcut files, also known as shell link (.lnk) files.
After the component is installed, a shortcut/.lnk file can be added directly to the playlist. It will be replaced by the target file it points to.
As of component version 1.3.1, the target must be a file. If the shortcut points to a folder, the .lnk file itself will be added to the playlist, and won't be playable.
Installation
As of version 1.3.1, the component consists of a single DLL, foo_lnk.dll, which is bundled inside a .zip archive, inside a 'components' folder. Therefore, you could either unzip the archive into the foobar2000 folder, or just copy the DLL directly into the foobar2000\components folder.
