ICE94 checks the Shortcut table, Feature table, and MsiAssembly table and posts a warning if there are any unadvertised shortcuts pointing to an assembly file in the global assembly cache. If the entry in the Target field of the Shortcut table is not a feature in the Feature table, the shortcut is unadvertised. If the entry in the Component_ field of the Shortcut table is also listed in the MsiAssembly table, the shortcut points to an assembly file. If the entry in the File_Application field in the MsiAssembly table is empty, the assembly file is in the global assembly cache.
Result
ICE94 posts the following warning.
