    Deletes shortcuts keep coming back after loggin back in


    Hi

    I am deploying Edge Chromium throughout my company and part of the install script I have is deleting IE shortcuts to discourage use before its unsupported

    My script deletes the IE shortcut in :

    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

    and also :

    C:\Users\*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories

    The path in %appdata% is where the IE shortcut keeps coming back once I either log off and log back on



    Also a new one I found is C:\Users\username\Desktop\Edge.lnk

    keeps coming back after deleting it to. After I log off and back in, it comes back on the desktop

    What could be causing this?
