That's the weird part, the Event Viewer did not show anything regarding access/permissions. Thank you for being patient and I appreciate your help.

So, I created another administrator account on the same computer and tried to place the shortcuts to the shared folders on the desktop. Did not have any issue; which tells me it may be the user account...may be corrupted.
-
It is the administrator account. I can't create shortcuts, period. Doesn't matter if it is a file, folder or a website shortcut. When try to drag a website shortcut to the desktop, I get the "Access Denied" error even though it is the administrator account.

When trying to place a shortcut of shared folders on a Windows 10 PC (part of the same workgroup), I get: "Windows could not create the shortcut. Check to see if the disk is full." It is not a disk issue as there are 400 GB of space available.

I actually tried that before I posted on this forum. Adding it to the Registry did not make any difference. After adding the above info into Registry, I restarted the workstation and it still won't allow creating shortcuts.

Yes, I edited my post. The computer I'm needing help with is not part of a domain. It is a standalone Windows 10 PC in a workgroup.

Thanks for the help but when I go into the Group Policy Editor, I do not have "Registry" listed under "Windows Settings." This is for a local Windows 10 Pro 21H1 x64 PC (not part of a domain).

Can someone explain the steps on how they added the registry entry, described in this thread, into the Group Policy? Thanks
