Seen with v1.3.0 on Windows 11:

Files are always listed without their extension. It would help if that was only the case for shortcuts. Now I can only use the icon to guess which kind of file it is.
For all extensions other than .lnk, I suggest either following the Windows Explorer setting for showing extensions, or make it configurable.

Agree with @DeKnep, if you are viewing a regular directory with more than .lnk files it's harder to tell what's what. FWIW, I know some people keep "Hide file extensions for known file types" turned on in Explorer, but I personally can't stand that Windows feature so I disable it on every system I touch.

If you just want all extensions besides .lnk to be visible, you can have that by changing SettingsForm.cs's ReloadMenuItems(...) method around line 259 ...
Comment out

Text = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(file),

and make it:

Text = Path.GetFileName(file).Replace(".lnk", ""),
