Configuration of Desktop Shortcut failed

Configuration of Desktop Shortcut failed

I tried creating a computer configuration that is supposed to create a desktop shortcut to Chrome on the desktop.  After filling in all the fields I attempted to publish but the Deploy and Deploy Immediately buttons don't work.  The only way I was able to deploy was to save as a draft, return to the list of configurations, and then using the gear icon to show the context menu I deployed it from there.

After deployment the configuration fails on all machines.  On some machines the configuration remains at 'yet to apply' while others show the error ' Failed to download XML'  

What do you suggest?

Thanks,
A
