* '''Note that for Octave 4.4.0, the shortcuts start the command line interface, not the graphical user interface, by default.  The user needs to add <code>--force-gui</code> to any manual shortcuts to start Octave with the GUI. (Right-click on the shortcut, select Properties, and add <code>--force-gui</code> to the end of the Target field.) Octave 4.4.1+ reverted back to the previous behavior where graphical user interface runs by default.'''
