Hi Peter,

Could you please provide the shortcut location for Notes shortcut you didn't remove?

(1) Open start menu, click All Programs->IBM Applications->right Click IBM Notes->Properties.
(2) Click "General" tab.
(3) Find "Location"

German locale related directory
NICE is mainly for English locale, so it only deleted shortcuts under folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\IBM Applications. It is hard coded. The shortcut you pasted is under IBM Anwendungen, a German locale related directory. NICE didn't know this folder is IBM Application folder, so it could not handle and the shortcut is remained.

NICE is mainly for a registry cleaner. Registry keys are hard to remove but shortcuts can be removed easily by end user.

The workaround is, remove shortcut manually.
