Create / install program icons or shortcuts

[phil.cooke]

Apologies if this has been answered before, I've searched but can't find anything.
I want to know how to create (or add) program icons into the programs folder. I have some applications that I've installed and they have not created their own program icon so I want to be able to add a shortcut / link or whatever you want to call it into the programs folder. I'm sure this is a basic feature but I just can't find it.

So has no-one managed to do this or are you just ignoring someone who is starting out?

you have to copy and paste as a shortcut in /windows/start menu/programs
