Interesting, it's as though the shortcut for the management shell wasn't created properly. It's not actually trying to load the management shell, it's just setting the shortcut to run as administrator. Can you check if the shortcut exists (either in the specified path, or in your Start Menu)? If the shortcut doesn't exist then there may be something amiss with your SharePoint installation in general.
