Import a single Windows game?

In older versions, I could drag a Steam shortcut onto LaunchBox and import it as a game. It looks like at some point after the "import Windows games" was added, the drag & drop was disabled. I tried importing it as a ROM (the plan being to edit it afterwards to remove the emulator), but selecting the .url file gives me a "catastrophic failure" error.

Trying the Import Windows Games option not only takes several minutes to run and isn't picking up the game I want. Which is definitely in the Steam group on the Start menu. And I definitely don't want to use the Steam import, I have hundreds of games and only want to add the installed ones. Not to mention adding Epic Game Store games.

Is there some way to access the old import, or could something be added to import just applications (.url, .lnk, .exe, etc)? Because at the moment, I have to import a dummy file as a ROM, then go back in and edit to the correct path and disable the emulation.
