Summary: shortcuts are only set for the current user

Initial Comment:
There is no shortcut in the start menu for Avogadro when logging in as normal user.

To fix this you need to use these lines of the NSIS installer:

SetOutPath $SMPROGRAMS$StartMenuGroup
CreateShortCut “$SMPROGRAMS$StartMenuGroup\Start Avogadro.lnk” $INSTDIR\Avogadro.exe
CreateShortCut “$SMPROGRAMS$StartMenuGroup\Uninstall Avogadro.lnk” $INSTDIR\uninstall.exe

Then start menu shortcut folder is created for all users when installing as admin, and only for the current user when installing as normal user.
