This TCMD Option here ...

... has no influence.

The Start Directory for File Explorer is ALWAYS "Dieser PC" ("This PC" or something like that in english).

What is here the problem?

It's the same here. And when that is showing, the text in the location box (just below "File Explorer") is
Code:
::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
... not very friendly.

You can get a computer name (in my case, "ZZ") by looking at the default value in
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
Maybe there's an API function to get a more reasonable string than the CLSID itself.

Yes, indeed :-)

BTW: If NO path is set, it takes the Path from Shortcut. OMG we are in similar theme again :-))
