Dissapearing App-V shortcuts, your experience + best workaround?

$

Hi,

We recently disocvered that shortcuts dissapear in App-V packages or just aren't there.

*For terminal server users this could be related to "migration mode", we enabled it recently and seems ok for now.
*For Windows pc's this is related to the fact we uninstall the physical application afterwards. The option to change the name of the folder/shortcut is not valid for us so we need to find another solution. Not sure if we should enable migration mode for computers also/if this would help in this case(?)

I was thinking to deploy an extra application which does a simple repair with a stop of the package (since the repair in the App-V GUI doesn't bring back the shortcut), f.e.
Get-AppvClientPackage -name  *xmind* | Stop-AppvClientPackage -Global | Repair-AppvClientPackage -Global or even publish this package so users can repair it theirselves.

However, that's quite some overload (creating this for every app-v package).
What's your experience with this?
Please advise.
