            Bug ID: 126838
           Summary: Install fails when silent and desktop shortcut
                    creation is forbidden
           Product: LibreOffice

Description:
I use the Windows Defender Ransomware Protection which protects user folders by
preventing access by not authorised apps, which typically includes all setups.
Because of this creating desktop shortcuts is not possible on my system.
When using the silent flag to install LibreOffice, the installer throws and
exception because of this, cancels and reverts the install.

Please fix the behaviour to resume install inspite of the error.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Activate Windows Defender Ransomeware Protection
2. Install LibreOffice in silent mode

Actual Results:
Install throws error and cancels

Expected Results:
Install continues and logs the failed creation of the desktop shortcut as an
error


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
