Enhancement: Windows installation is not indexed by search
See original GitHub issueThe windows installer of react native debugger installed in my AppData folder. Windows search automatically excludes this folder from the search index. Because of this i cannot open react native debugger from my windows search.
I solved this myself by adding a shortcut of react-native-debugger.exe in the programs folder wich will be indexed (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs).
It would be nice if the installation wizard did this automatically! 😃
