"C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Pinball\PINBALL.EXE" is the exact location of
where the file should be. It is a "system" file and should not be moved.
If you're downloading "things" which are tampering with your system files,
you're on your own. 8-)
Try going into Windows Explorer and doing a Search for "Pinball" without the
quotes. Make sure you've gone into Folder Options in Control Panel and
enabled seeing system files, file extensions, etc., first. You should find
it properly there, and from that you could right-click, drag a new shortcut
to your desktop.
