Do you have to put the Name of the shortcut then .exe then .Ink in?

whatever the shortcut says just add .lnk
if it isn't working you may not be in the right directory.

I tried again and again and it keeps saying it's not there. I even tried on my friend's computer. For example I make a shortcut to notepad and I go to the directory I made it in, put the code in the same place and type "Notepad.Ink". What's wrong?
