On my Windows Vista system, double-clicking
on any of the links for 'Global Configuration', 'System' and 'Program'
actually starts Wireshark.

Looking a little deeper: the 'parent' directory specified in these links has a wireshark-gtk2.exe as well as a wireshark-gtk2 directory. (This is my standard wireshark development setup).

Any way to force the path to be opened in file manager as a directory as opposed to first defaulting to trying the path as an executable ?
