Requested software will search system for both .lnk & .url files and change/edit their specified properties in batch mode.

LNK PROPERTIES
Shortcut Tab
Target:
Start in:
Shortcut key:
Run: Normal window | Minimized | Maximized
Comment:

URL PROPERTIES
Web Document Tab
Shortcut Key
Change Icon > Look for icons in this file

I have tried the following, but they do not have all requested capabilities:

BatchShortcutEdit.application
Website: http://www.btonkinson.com/software.php
Does not work on URLs
Can not search, list, and select
Can change Comments
Can change window size

ShortcutsSearchAndReplace 1.6.11
Website: http://jacquelin.potier.free.fr/shortcutssearchandreplace/index.php
Does not work on URLs
Can search, list, and select
Not an intuitive UI

THANK YOU!!!!

I know this doesn't solve the problem in its entirety for you, but it may be one step along the way:

If you have a tool that can batch edit the .LNK properties, then maybe Skwire's Earl will help you convert your .URL files to .LNK files.

What you mean with batch mode?
A console application where you set parameter to do auto things?
A GUI with dropbox where you smash in all your .lnk .url files in?
A program that expose a given driveletter to search for all that files?

I could be able to do such, one thing i cant/missing experience -> edit hotkey
But idk in what kind of way a tool should convert those files.... i need more input.
My only thought would be, collect all files by searching drive/partition, when collect is completed present a edit window to manual modify files.
If needed with URL to LNK convert.

ConstanceJill:
Yeah, we'd need to know a little more about what OP is trying to do.

Maybe it can be automated with a batch file and Shortcut.exe from http://www.optimumx.com/downloads.html#Shortcut ?

berkland:
By "batch" I mean for the software to search a directory, create a list of url or lnk, and then edit one or more of the files in the list.  In other words, not have to open each url or lnk file separately, but process multiple files at a time.  Any more questions?
