Correct.  The Windows installer puts 5 icons-entries under a Python x.y 
entry in the Start Menu (or All apps in Win 10).  It does not put any on 
the desktop.  You can easily copy from Start Menu to Desktop if you 
want.  Win 10 makes this much harder (I forget how I did it).

> neither in my C: drive

I do not understand 'icon in C: drive'.  If you use Windows Explorer, 
you will find a Pythonxy either in the default location or wherever you 
said to put it.
