Hi,

recently I installed QGIS on Windows to test GRASS 7 support. To my
surprise QGIS put 5(!) icons to my deskop. I don't know any program
which installs so many icons to the desktop. Even program such ArcGIS
puts only one icon ;-) I wouldn't be surprised that some newcomers can
be confused when trying to understand which icon to use the first time
;-)

BTW, uninstall procedure do not remove these icons from desktop.

Hi Martin,

I think this was discussed in January here[1]. I don't know what came out of that discussion though. Even though I am aware of the importance of good docs explaining these icons, in this case for new users on a Windows system, sitting in a confusing long workshop, one single icon to "QGIS Desktop 2.14.2" would be very pleasing, for both the workshop instructors and attendees.

(I remained quiet on this issue earlier because I didn't want to seem negative, ha)
