Visual studio creates advertised shortcuts so that when you are starting the application it will check first of existence for each file and repair the file automatically if it is modified or deleted. But sometimes you don't want to have this behavior for each file so how to deal with that ?

2. Change the condition in the file properties to NOT REINSTALL
3. Set the Transitive property to TRUE
