How to create Shortcut 'SED' instead of 'SED.exe - Shortcut'?

I often have to create Shortcuts to executable code.

I used Shortcut Extension - Remove or Restore to get

Code:

SED.exe

instead of the Win7 default

Code:

SED.exe - Shortcut

as name of the newly created shortcut.


But I would prefer to have just 'SED'. Any way to do this automatically?


I think it might matter that I do not hide extensions ['Hide extensions for known files' (Option in Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options... -> View)].

Hi Shawn, Thanks for your help. However that is not what I want. ''Hide extensions for known files' is something that would bother me all day if enabled - I need to see the extentions!

What I look for is, a way to suppress the extension just for the shortcuts - the moment they get created. I usually have no problems to know what I deal with, when I use shortcuts.
