You do not need to execute the shortcut.  You can execute cmd.exe itself
directly.  Use the CreateProcess() function for that.

Then you do not need to run cmd.exe at all.  You can run SomeApp.exe
directly instead.  If it is a console application, then it will show the
console window automatically.
