Shortcut for Windows Fax and Scan

Ok i'm going to have to try to reproduce this on a virtual machine.  If anyone else can report their experiences with launching this and other control panel shortcuts let me know.

mvuille:
Since you mention Control Panel shortcut, and just so there's no
misunderstanding, the non-working shortcut points to "%windir%\system32\WFS.exe".

I also tried manually creating a command node that points directly
at the executable in "C:\Windows\system32\WFS.exe" and that
didn't work either.

mouser:
well now thats plain weird.
let me ask, does that file actually exist (WFS)?

i wonder if this is one of those cases where windows is doing some trickery with virtual directory shadowing type stuff, pretending the file is one place when it's not..  or if it's some kind of permission system..

mvuille:
Explorer shows a file named WFS.exe in C:\Windows\System32, but that
doesn't eliminate the possibility of some special Windows trickery.

But an executable by that name is not in C:\Windows\SysWOW64, where the 32 bit LBC will try to find it...
