Description

I am creating two installers for two distinct products A and B. They are both to be launched with dedicated shortcuts placed under the same program group P.
If I install A and then B I will only see the Program Group P containing the shortcut for B. The shortcut for A is lost.
If I install B and then A I will only see the Program Group P containing the shortcut for A. The shortcut for B is lost.
Basically the second installer overwrites the program group P created by the first one, instead of merging in its shortcuts.
