If you search for that option text in the source code you'll end up 
looking at:

https://cygwin.com/git/?p=cygwin-apps/setup.git;a=blob;f=desktop.cc

Note that a patch to simply reverse the default setting of that option 
(i.e. make it unset by default, and require the user to click that 
checkbox to create the shortcuts (meaning that most users will have to 
do that) would not be acceptable.

Probably what's wanted is to remember the state of those checkboxes, if 
this isn't the first time setup has been run?
