Describe the bug
When I install VSCodium and right-click a file or folder, the "Open With VSCodium" has the S underlined, but when I press S, it creates a shortcut instead of opening with vscodium.
Please confirm that this problem is VSCodium-specific
This bug doesn't happen if I use Microsoft's Visual Studio Code. It only happens in VSCodium.
Please confirm that the issue/resolution isn't already documented
I checked the Docs page and my issue is not mentioned there.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Install VSCodium (maybe you need to enable adding Windows Explorer right-click menu options)
Open Windows Explorer, focus (click) a file, and press the keyboard right-click menu key
See the vscodium entry, notice S is underlined, and try to press S
It creates a shortcut instead of opening vscodium
Expected behavior
The underlined key opens vscodium.
shows that "V&SCodium" and the S is meant to be underlined.
Opening ShellMenuView and searching codium, vscodium creates 4 registry entries and uses "Open W&ith V&SCodium" for all 4, indicating both "ith" and "SCodium" are "meant" to be underlined, but the second underline overrides the first.
I think the second ampersand should be removed, since there shouldn't be two ampersands, and the current setup makes it difficult to open a file in vscodium via the keyboard alone. (With the second ampersand removed, I can open files in vscodium in two keystrokes, by pressing "menu" key and "i".)
Honestly this issue may be language-specific, and "pressing S creates shortcut" is the case in English but possibly not other languages. But having 2 underlined keys seems like a bad design in of itself. Was it done to avoid clashing with Open W&ith Code or similar?

Thanks for calling this out @jimbo1qaz ! When I first wrote the build script and included the changes to product.json, I really had no idea what the ampersand affected. Your explanation makes a lot of sense.
To clarify -- is the recommendation to change win32ShellNameShort='setpath(["win32ShellNameShort"]; "V&SCodium")' to win32ShellNameShort='setpath(["win32ShellNameShort"]; "VSCodium")' ?
That seems like a reasonable change to make, and replicates what I did manually to the registry. I hope it doesn't have any unexpected side effects though.
