Ethernet Desktop Shortcut Stops Working

New PC, I keep creating Ethernet desktop shortcuts and after a day or so they stop enabling/disabling. I can however open network and sharing, or maybe it was network connections and enable/disable the original icon without any problems whatsoever. The problem only seems to happen on my desktop shortcut. Here seems to be a similar issue http://www.eightforums.com/network-sharing/46605-network-desktop-shortcut-does-not-update.html
