[Qgis-user] Rogue start menu shortcut

[Alexandre Neto]

Hi Paul,

Are you using Windows 10? I have seen that happen on a Windows 10 VM. The
good part is that it's not related to QGIS installer, it's something
Windows creates (like a recently used program). The bad part is that I was
not able to avoid it... :-(

Cheers,

Alex
