Thanks verbal_666,
Drag & drop doesn't make a desktop shortcut, it removes the vlc exe file from the root folder.
I don't understand your second instruction. What do I do with that line of data?

Drag & Drop with RIGHT mouse button, then "Create Shortcut".
You have to open a Command Prompt and type one of theese command, they create a Shortcut on Desktop to VLC.
