Default Installation of Software gives multiple Icons?

I hav had trouble with installation of software creating multiple icons. The following
- ADBTransit
- ADBWeather
- Xconverter

All of these created TWO isons when I ran the install, but only one of their icons worked. Then when I uninstall, it left BOTH icons there and I can't remove them. Tried soft reset and that didn't help. Nor did syncing help either.

Anyone had this problem before?

This problem is easily fixed without the need for even a soft reset.

1) Open the file explorer
2) Go to \Windows\Start menu\Programs (or whatever it is called - my Magician speaks German)
3) Delete the shortcuts you want to get rid of

Yes, it's really that easy
