interesting. In theory this should work (see also 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/rkward/forums/forum/165574/topic/3692612). 
Could you try running this on the command line (cmd.exe)? That might show an 
error message to help us track this down.

The installer is not smart enough to figure out, whether it has administrator 
privileges, and therefore it just installs a shortcut on the current user's 
desktop. You could simply copy RKWard.lnk from the Administrator's desktop to 
the desktop-folder below "All Users".
