>From my experience I HAD to use:
<RegistryValue Root="HKCU" Key='Software\[Manufacturer]\[ProductName]'
Name="installed" Type="integer" Value="1" KeyPath="yes"/>
</Component>
when adding a shortcut on the desktop. (someone correct me if they have
done it another way.)
Unless I am reading it unclear you are not referencing the desktop folder
in your directory id section.
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="YOURDIR" Name="NAMEOFYOURDIR"/>
*<Directory Id ="DesktopFolder" Name="Desktop"/>*
</Directory>
</Directory>
Your code updated.
1. <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
2. <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="PFiles">
3. <Directory Id="TESTPKG" Name="TestPKG">
4. *<Directory Id ="DesktopFolder"
Name="Desktop"/>*
