Installer Shortcuts in a shortcut toolbar do not work if not displ

I created a shortcut toolbar and have copied over shortcuts created by
installation programs "Installer Shortcuts"

If the icon does not display in the toolbar because the toolbar has been
resized smaller the icon is selected from the double chevrons (>>) it does
not work.

If the icon for the shortcut is displayed on the shortcut toolbar it works
correctly.

If the same folder is created as a taskbar toolbar it works correctlly.


There are two errors that occur. One with Microsoft Office 2007 shortcuts,
and the other with the Server Administrator tools.

With Office 2007 shortcuts it tries to open an icon file in the
"C:\Windows\Installer" folder and I receive a "is not a valid Win32
application." error.

With the server administrator tools it opens up the application icon in
windows photo gallery.
