Also, I don't have any anti-virus other than what's with Windows 10. Tech said not needed. Haven't had any problems.

Re: Starts from Install Finish but not from desktop icon
PLEASE BE SPECIFIC. I do not know computers. I can operate software but when you start talking code, what files to delete, what to install…you lose me if you are not more specific.
