a) Many programmes when one is installing an update provide an option (as part of the upgrade process or 1st installation process if installing the programme for the first time) "do you want to Create a Desktop short cut?"
b) Secondly there is sometimes a prompt " e.g "an existing version is installed - Upgrade Yes /No?"

At present one has to update Desktop Short cut manually via Launcher.exe or Select Opera.exe and then Create a Short cut.

If you are not doing a standalone install, it does create a shortcut.

If you point it at a previous install, it will change to say "update".

Not really the best solution, but you can use command-line switches for the installer to control the desktop shortcut.
