Re: [Exist-open] I finally installed Java 21 correctly. But I can't install eXist 6

[Ted H. <meg...@gm...>]

I finished installing eXist.  And apparently the installation was
successful.  It said I was going to be able to click an icon on my
computer.  But I can't find it.  Is there a way to create a desktop icon
for eXist?
