Geek Create a Shortcut for Portable Geek Uninstaller
Quick answer: A portable application can have a Windows shortcut without a traditional installer.

Shortcuts do not change the program’s license or make it a service.
Before changing software registrations, make sure you have identified the exact application, edition and account. A change that is appropriate on a personal Windows PC may not be permitted on a managed company computer.

- Extract the utility to a stable folder first.
- Right-click the executable and choose Show more options → Create shortcut.
- Move the shortcut rather than moving the executable unexpectedly.
- Test the shortcut with the required permissions.
How to check the outcome
Cross-check the result in Windows Settings → Apps → Installed apps when the target has an installation entry. If Windows asks for a restart, complete it before deciding the operation failed.
