I'm not sure to get you: you seem to confound the location of a shortcut (i.e., the physical path to the .lnk file) with its target (the actual physical location this link is pointing to).

Um.
You did notice that one of them is a shortcut (i.e. a .LNK file) , and the other is a .URL file?
They aren't the same thing...
