Here’s a great free tool for removing those darn arrows that Vista adds to all your shortcut desktop icons. The Vista Shortcut Manager
From their web page:Windows Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover, aka FxVisor, allows you to either way to remove the shortcut overlay arrow or to even customize it in Windows Vista, so we have written the Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover utility to enable you to do just that.
Version 2.0:Former Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover now called Vista Shortcut Manager has added many new welcome features like: Custom overlay icons, Enable/Disable “-shortcut” extension, full support for x64 platforms, and direct upgrade from version 1.3.
Before: After:
Just install the program, and choose the options you want and click apply. The program also lets you remove the Shortcut name to all your icons. You will need to logoff them back on for the settings to take effect.
This is a Great little free program.
