I got a new Windows 10 laptop and cannot reproduce the issue, I suspect this happens on an old OS.
When I implemented the feature, I did not manually test this on old Desktop Windows versions like e.g. Windows 7 or 8.1 (but I think I tested it on WinServer 2008R2)

Just an update that I can reproduce now and will start to look into it. |
Steps to reproduce
Install PowerShell Core 6.1 on Windows choosing to add context menu "Open PowerShell from here". Once installed, just clicking any Windows shortcut for a folder opens a PowerShell 6.1 window not the Windows Explorer window at the folder.
This only seems to happen with Directory\Folder shortcuts in Quick Launch (%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch) that are then exposed on Quick Launch toolbar on W10 taskbar as they respond to single click to open. The single click open PowerShell. Uninstall returns behavior to normal.
Expected behavior
Clicking a folder shortcut opens the folder in Windows Explorer.
