<pre>See the documentation of MSI Shortcut table:
<a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa371847(v=vs.85).aspx">https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa371847(v=vs.85).aspx</a>
Component_
The external key into the first column of the Component table. The
installer uses the installation state of the component specified in this column
to determine whether the shortcut is created or deleted. This component must
have a valid key path for the shortcut to be installed.
Our requirement is that desktop icon should be optional, therefore we cannot
use e.g. soffice.exe, we need the conditionally installed desktophelper.txt. I
can imagine that it can be done in a different way, but what would be the
benefit?</pre>
