Thanks for your help, it worked!

Now, the last problem, I noticed that CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES you
can't set an icon, thus I used my own CreateShortCut and Delete with
respectively CPACK_NSIS_CREATE_ICONS_EXTRA and
CPACK_NSIS_DELETE_ICONS_EXTRA. The first one works, but not the
second.

	set(CPACK_NSIS_CREATE_ICONS_EXTRA "CreateShortCut			\\\\
	    '$SMPROGRAMS\\\\$STARTMENU_FOLDER\\\\${PROJECT_NAME}.lnk'		\\\\
	    '$INSTDIR\\\\sd-tris.exe'						\\\\
	    ''									\\\\
	    '${ICONPATH}'"
	)
	set(CPACK_NSIS_DELETE_ICONS_EXTRA "Delete				\\\\
	    '$SMPROGRAMS\\\\$STARTMENU_FOLDER\\\\${PROJECT_NAME}.lnk'"
	)

When uninstalling, the window menu entry is still there and not
removed at all. But the project.nsi has the line

Delete				\
	    '$SMPROGRAMS\$STARTMENU_FOLDER\sd-tris.lnk'

But this command is not executed by the Uninstall.exe.

Cheers, and thanks for your attention!
