Remove shortcut arrow from desktop icons


Sometimes when you use shortcut’s on desktop for your frequently used
files or movies it is ugly to see a small
Shortcut arrow at the bottom corner of
the Shortcut icon.
Here’s how you can remove those
shortcut arrows from your desktop icons in Windows XP.

1. Start regedit ie; Start->Run->regedit

2. Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
\lnkfile  If you find difficult in reaching
this file location, simply Press Ctrl+F to
open find window. Enter “IsShortcut”
and click find. now Press f3 till you get the file Inkfile located at
Hkey_Classes_Root\Inkfile

3. Delete the IsShortcut registry value. You may need to restart Windows XP.
