This is another issue related to #653.

Open C:\Users\VarunAgw\AppData\Roaming\OpenShell\Pinned\abc by double-clicking on start menu.

Now paste a file in this folder.

Expected: File to be pasted in abc folder and visible here.

Result: File is pasted in an inaccessible folder and can't seen anywhere.

Adds a new function called GetFakeFolder which attempts to find and get
the target.lnk file from a fake folder (what Open-Shell uses to pin
folders). If detected, InvokeCommand is swapped for a ShellExecute call
to the target shortcut. Fixes Open-Shell#555, Open-Shell#653, and by extension, Open-Shell#691.

Try Open Shell 4.4.170 and report back if this is fixed. I archived its installer here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AvOMnbjzo1eEkwyqayBPDOHuWx0v?e=VeMX1e See #852 for details about the feature that opens pinned folders to their actual path. An official release of Open Shell hasn't been made since there are many other changes to be approved/rejected.

@VarunAgw @Gaurav-Original-ClassicShellTester fantastic... do you know when this is going to be released, officially? I see the program hasn't had an official release in over a year.
