I think you got more of a chance in the computer section, you should ask for a mod to move it. |

I use Icon Packager from http://wincustomize.com/
May not work for all programs though, and you might need the full version. _________________

There's some settings on your computer. I've done it before trying to do something in a tutorial. I'm going to check again.
Edit: Not tested because I have Vista but here you go. http://windowsxp.mvps.org/arrow.htm
Edit 2: @Up2Admin Are you always trying to get at least 1 warning?

It has nothing to do with the icon. the os regorginzes it as a shortcut as it is not installed at the desktop..
And iternet explorer does have an arrow.. _________________

My shortcuts dont have arrows. If you have tuneup utilities it can remove them. Its probably a registry. google "remove shortcut arrow".
Edit:
Code: | Go To Start>Run> And Type : regedit it will open the Registry Editor, Use CTRL+F To Find the Following Keys and Delete the 'IsShortcut' value from them.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\piffile
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InternetShortcut
It's easier than it sounds! After Doing so, Restart Windows and Voila! No Ugly Arrows!
NOTE: For some people, Deleting These three keys doesn't work, in that case also delete 'IsShortcut' from the following Keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DocShortCut
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WSHFile
After doing so, Restart. |
Ending result:
Copy pasta'd from google, first link. |
