and click Apply. I have seen instances where the flag is designated with one hypen; others with a double hypen. I think that the double hyphen is correct.

You should edit this since "
...setup" is pertaining to the installer and not the executable.
Should be:
"....\bitcoin-qt.exe" -reindexMust be outside the quotation marks, either
--reindex or
-reindex will work in shortcuts.
Also, "
writable field" should be specified to "
Target:" under 'Shortcut' tab since there are more than one writable fields there.
