Please help me im a glue bag. I can not for the life of me remember how to get rid of the damn arrows from my icons. help help help
:confused:
 
if you have the program tweak UI for XP then it is in there under the explorer/shortcuts
 
hmmmm

Was hoping to not have to install tweakUI i dont have much use for it.
 
Well you do have use for it if you want to get rid of the arrows on your shortcut icons. It is the only way to do it unless you change the icon itself grafically - and that is even more complex and you'd need more than 1 program (TweakUI) to do that.

So go get TweakUI and solve your problem.
 
You can edit the registry to get rid of the shortcut arrows also.

1) Open Regedit
2) Make your way to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/lnkfile
3) Find the value IsShortcut and delete it
4) Reboot

Hope this helps.
 
I knew there was a way to do it with out tweakui thanks
 
yoda - all tweakui does is make registry changes. So anything you can do with a tweaker you can do manually in the registry. Personally, I prefer the easy way. I have tweakui, x-setup and tweakxp on my system. Not sure why everyone doesn't have at least one (x-setup being the most comprehensive).

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
