  I just tried what I suggested above and it works as expected.

  In Open-Shell Menu, I can now just do:

Start -> Programs -> System Utilities -> Backup -> Macrium -> Reflect ->
Macrium Reflect

  That starts Macrium Reflect, just like it did (does because I copied
instead of cut) for:

Start -> Programs -> Macrium -> Reflect -> Macrium Reflect

  I didn't find 'System Utilities' in the native (Windows 11) Start
menu, but that was not the purpose of this exercise. Perhaps it will
appear after a re-login or reboot, who knows?
