I am install guiscrcpy with pip. I am using python3. How to create desktop shorcut?. I am using Windows 10

Currently, I am looking for a method to do that too. One solution is to create a batch script

1. Open notepad or any other text editor
2. Type into it

python -m guiscrcpy.cli

3. Save it as guiscrcpy-launcher.bat, don't forget to select All Files (.*) in the save drop down menu, otherwise your batch script will be saved as .txt format.
4. Now, double click on this batch script and see if it works.
5. It works? 🎉
6. Right click > Add shortcut to desktop
7. Set Icon and enjoy

I found that GuiScrCpy has a built-in shortcut maker. I run python, then type this:

from guiscrcpy.platform.windows_tools.tools import make_shortcut
make_shortcut()

Shortcut Will created in desktop and application list. However there are problems like the following

• The icon file guiscrcpy/ui/icons/guiscrcpy_logo_SRj_icon.ico not found. This because the file is not shipped in package. This make shortcut does not have an icon. Ship this file in package should fix this problem.
• A console window (cmd.exe) is appear

The icon is shipped with the package. See this

Don't know why. Any solutions?
