Self-updates on Windows run the NSIS installer in passive mode (
/P /R). In passive or silent mode, cargo-packager's installer template creates the desktop and start menu shortcuts unless it gets/NS:So every update put the desktop icon back, even if the user had deleted it. This passes
/NSthroughWindowsConfig::installer_args. The first install still offers the desktop shortcut on its finish page. An update doesn't remove the start menu shortcut, so skipping its creation leaves the existing one alone.I couldn't test an actual update on Windows. The behaviour comes from reading the installer template and
cargo-packager-updater0.2.3, which appendsinstaller_argsafter the install mode's/P /R.Fixes #970
