Do not create uninstall shortcut in startmenu (#381) 

Creating such a start menu entry is a leftover of the ancient Win 3.x time where there was no central control panel for removing programs.

Also see the Windows guidelines, where creating an uninstall shortcut is discouraged: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms954377.aspx
