How do I prevent users from deleting a shortcut on desktop?

I recently have run into a problem with users deleting shortcuts from their desktop that should not be deleted so I was wondering if there is a way that I can prevent users from doing this. It is a computer that multiple users have access to and I've added the shortuct to the "All Users" desktop but they are still able to delete it. How can I change this? Any help would be appreciated.
 
Can you set an appropriate access Permission to the Shortcut in th All Users folder so that it cannot be deleted by users?
