I've checked come designs in File Management, some can get path from a file but not for shortcut's target path. ""Copy As Path"" also can get the shortcut's path, but not the target path. I tried spy in windows but stuck in the stage after right click. It need another object to spy on the right click dialogue box, but I don't know the window title of it. Any ideas on it? Also it will be great if any advice on coding. Regards.

Or any other method? Is it right to spy in windows/folder/file properties?

An extended menu will open with the option ""Copy As Path"". You can Spy in Windows/Folder but check the built in VBO - File Management. Maybe that already solves some of your development problems.&nbsp; Regards Thu, 14 Jun 2018 13:28:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/How-to-get-a-shortcut-s-target-path/m-p/74178#M26783 KaiSchlüter 2018-06-14T13:28:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/How-to-get-a-shortcut-s-target-path/m-p/74179#M26784 Hi kschluter, Thank you for your comment.
