No to create a short cut you just select the exe right click Create short
cut. If you open properties even from the shortcut in all programs you will
see a Short cut tab With space to enter a shortcut key, where it says None
you enter one.

Sorry, but what you say is not correct. As Trev said, if you
right-click the existing desktop shortcut and choose Properties, you
can create a keyboard shortcut there.

it is not an available option from the exe's own properties screen.
That is what threw me.
Now I added the shortcut (Ctrl + Alt + N) but for some reason this will
still not open the app. Not sure why. (Have not rebooted yet, maybe it
needs that).
