Installing MSYS2 with

msys2-x86_64-2022XXXX.exe install --root C:\MSYS2 --confirm-command

Only installs Icons for the current user, not for all users. This is for the latest release 20230718 and, at least the two before.

This probably belongs to msys2/msys2-installer repo.

And then it has quite newer releases, Eg:
https://github.com/msys2/msys2-installer/releases/tag/2023-07-18

@tps800 I second this.

I must transfer ownership of my work PC to a new engineer since I will be leaving soon. The problem is that the common Admin account does NOT have the icons. Only my account has them. This is troublesome as I might need to reinstall all of the packages we use here.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Just to clarify: I am aware that I can create shortcuts to the specific packages we need, however, I am not sure if when the new user tries to update a package, link a header library or use any of the modules, something might break.
