batch converter opening desktop icons

[dcbahr]

Hi. Seems that after I added the Batch Converter option to the window context menu, all the desktop icons like Control Pannel, recycle bin, are opening up in batch converter. I have 15.2 reference. versions are pasted below. When I take thatt option out of the config, it works fine. Oh, running windows 8-64 bit.
dBpoweramp 64-bit: Registered Reference
Release 15.2
DSP Effects: Release 11

I checked the .lnk association and it looks fine. anyone else had this rather odd issue? I like that batch convert option in the context menu though, makes my life a lot easier. thoughts?

So if you add this right click option, simply double clicking the recycle opens batch converter?

Yeah, it's the weirdest thing ever. Same with control pannel, network, this pc, all the native icons on the desktop but also some subfolders within control pannel. Oddly enough, when I do that, it brings up the path of, lets say, therecycler. But it's this path, not the c:\ type, instead it says:

::{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

that path is listed at the bottom of the batch convert window. Of course, it doesn't find any audio files.

But if I remove the right click option, click recycle bin, it opens up in file explorer and looks just like the recycle bin should.
