    Do you see any error when you try to open any of these application?
    Also, can you try launching Allegro PCB Editor or any other application from the Start Menu and see if it gets launched from there.

    Both the images just show shortcut files.  right click on any of these files and select properties this will point where the actual files is on the hard disk

    and check whether you can find these files using windows file explorer
