Can’t delete short cut

This is unresolved issue for I have published it before and no body get’s a solution. My problem is I could not delete the shorcut of the freeware software I have installed in my PC though the main source is already uninstalled. there is no delete option when u right click the icon in the desktop and there is no source in the properties, I can not even remove using the latest anti-virus if it’s a virus, any ideas ?
