@eryksun That is (was) an .lnk indeed, and adding ".lnk" to PATHEXT is exactly what I did to make it work. This is much more maintainable than registry hacks.

An .lnk is launched with ShellExecute which returns control immediately upon successful launch (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31855240/execute-exe-as-jpg/31861241#31861241 for how this happens from `cmd' prompt).
