so i recently downloaded minecraft for my laptop and got a desktop shortcut. i then downloaded minecraft from the same account onto a desktop, but did not get the desktop icon. how can i get the desktop icon?
For me, what worked (Windows Vista), was to go to the download link on minecraft, right click it, and select "Save Link As...", then choose to save it to your desktop
