How did you "Download"?  Adobe apps are all installed by using the Creative Cloud Desktop App which does the download and install automatically.

I have never experienced a LrC icon being installed on my windows desktop and do not expect to see one. ( I have to create a windows shortcut icon for my desktop). (Maybe a Mac is different)

 

Please include the following in your question:
Adobe product and Version number.
A Screenshot of the info panel from MENU: Help/System Info...
Operating system and Version number
The full text of any Error Message(s)
What you were doing when the problem occurred
Screenshots of the problem.
