That means that the component needs to have a registry key under HKCU as its keypath. This supports installation of per-user shortcuts for a per-machine installation.
Alternatively, you could switch to advertised shortcuts by specifying Advertise="yes" on the Shortcut elements. However, advertised shortcuts may cause undesirable demand-install behavior.
