Revit 2017 Shortcut is missing

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a student version of Revit 2017 which I did uninstall, deleted all the pertinent files from various folders, cleaned up the registry entries as well ( using the instructions from: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/troubleshooting/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2016/...) and temporarily disabled the Windows 10 Defender. Ran the install by clicking on  "Autodesk_Revit_2017_English_Win_64bit_dlm_001_002.sfx.exe" (I had downoaded the ..._002_002.sfx.exe as well). I clicked the Finish button after the compleion of the installation. But, I could not find the Revit's shortcut icon to run the Revit! Searched for Revit.exe, but, could not find it! Checked the Control panel (Uninstall or Change a program)  and there was no "Autodesk Revit 2017". I have all the other parts required to run the Revit such as material library, content libraries, MEP Imperial Content v2.0 and etc. I hope the picture is legible. Any help or suggestion will be appreciated.

I had to uninstall the Revit 2017 (using the Autodesk's Uninstall Tool) and reinstall it. It works fine now. Thanks all.
