Installation does not create Start menu or desktop shortcut

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      Installed on Windows 7 from SourceTreeSetup-2.4.7.0.exe, Afterwards found no good way to start program as it doesn't make anything obvious in the Windows Start menu or any shortcut on the desktop.  I looked in various program files directory and did not find anything.  Googling led me to C:\Users[Username]\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree but it's not present there either.  I finally had to search my hard drive to find that the program is installed at C:\Users[Username]\AppData\Local\SourceTree and created my own shortcut to it.  Unclear if this is as designed.
