Which sample are you requesting a feature to be added to?
Windows-universal-samples/Samples/ShareSource/cpp Windows-universal-samples/Samples/ShareTarget
Describe the feature
The ShareTarget sample allows for the creation of a quicklink which is passed to ReportCompleted (see image)
Unfortunately I do not see, how I could invoke such a quicklink. Neither does the shell upon sharing a file offer a quicklink option to the ShareTarget app nor does the ShareSource app offer such an option.
Therefore, can you please add to the above mentioned samples the possibility to invoke a quicklink that has been created by the ShareTarget app.
Many thanks in advance and best regards, Sascha
