NSIS windows 10 desktop shortcut icon missing
See original GitHub issue- 7.15.2:
- Windows 10:
When using NSIS to create a windows single click installer it creates a desktop icon with a blank icon and that doesn’t work, i.e. it points to nowhere and doesn’t launch app when you click it. See image:
I have sniffed around nsh scripts and don’t see anything weird about desktop icon, and I should note that the start menu icon and shortcut works fine, it’s only the desktop shortcut that has this issue. Tried running installer as admin too, same issues. Tried compatibility mode and that has the same issue too.

Ouch. If you use Parallels, you must not use “Share Mac user folders with Windows” feature and must not run installers from such folders. I am also macOS user and Parallels user and aware about this problem. I didn’t report about it to Parallels, if you want – please report (but I guess it is Windows bug).
You should or use feature “Open in Windows”
or copy installer to windows machine.
@emilyplusplus @gtkpr I’ve focused this problem these days.I fixed this by add config: “nsis”: { “perMachine”: true
