Note
If you don't want the desktop shortcut add this to the command line:
NODESKTOPICON=1

If you want to move the shortcut on the start menu, add this to the command line:
SHORTCUTLOCATION=Adobe Photoshop Elements
to put it in Start menu\Programs\Adobe Photoshop Elements

You must add that to the uninstall command also to delete the shortcut.

You can also change the properties in the mst file for your language instead.
