name.lnk.lnk.lnk.lnk.lnk forever ?

Contro:
I use a splendid program to create automatically shortcuts of the files selected from one folder to another.
Each month I close the month copying the links to a new folder.

But this month I observed that each month the extension is larger because the new one use a double, triple,..... lnk extension

I would like a simple utility to depure this behaviour and convert

name.lnk.lnk....lnk (n times ) into name.lnk

Best Regards

name.lnk.lnk.lnk.lnk.lnk   forever ?

PS. I haven't the foggiest idea why it works, just that it does.

Simply perfect.
I have a little problema with this
thumbs.db.lnk
thumbs.db.lnk.lnk
and so on
and also a couple of pdf with .lnk extension and the the same file name.

The program don't let execute the renaming while double renaming exists.
And is possible to rename manually until certain point, but is not possible delete files from inside the program window.

But works very well.

Regular expressions ? a pending subject to learn because I think is difficult to memorize things you don't apply everyday....
