The eliminate the risk of modifing registry, I personally recommend TweakUI which is come with Microsoft Power Toy.It allow you to complete this task by just one click. (a screen shoot is provided for who does not know what TweakUI is)As you can see from the screen shoot, TweakUI can do many little things easily, such as remove the arrow from shurtcut.you can easily undo the changes you made.It is better than to modify the system's registry, and more safer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
