    After installing revo uninstaller, it didn't create a desktop shortcut, only the programs folder. Since I have a seperate admin. account, entering a password each time to run the program would be annoying. Is there any way to create a desktop shortcut or does the program have to be installed each time I want to use it :eek:

    It normally makes a shortcut on your desktop, you must have un-selected that option during installation. Just reinstall it and make sure you allow it to make a desktop icon. Just run the default installer, not the custom one.

    Browse to Revo (love that program) in explorer and then send a shortcut to the desktop.

    There was any option for a desktop shortcut during the installation progress, but for some reason it didn't create any. I'll try that, thanks

    Theres no need to reinstall it just to get a desktop icon. Just navigate to the program from the start menu - right click - send to - desktop
