I am trying to "Drag & Drop" icons from the Start Menu in windows 10 to get it's Target; Naturally this works with .lnk but when dealing with a UWP it's not actually a .lnk (as far as I know). FileName, FileNameW and FileDrop is always "Nothing"

Can anyone think of a way (even if it is creating a shortcut in the application path and saving that and getting that "Target" path instead) of getting the Target of a UWP dragged onto the form (Windows Form) in VB.net or C# ; Either is fine.
