Your shortcut has 2 fields of importance. 
One is your target.  The other is the source folder. 
Follow this example, where C:\Program Files\Everquest Trilogy\ is your target folder, and C:\Program Files\Everquest Trilogy\eqgame.exe is your target file. 
 
Source folder: 
"C:\Program Files\Everquest Trilogy\" 
 
Target: 
"C:\Program Files\Everquest Trilogy\eqgame.exe" patchme 
 
If you notice, the patchme is outside the quotes.  That is very important.  Please check your shortcut for syntax errors. 
 
I go by either "Oh high and mighty one" or "hey, dude".  You can use the latter if you wish.
