Remove Shortcut Arrow from Icons

By VJ | Jan 19, 2008

Creating shortcuts is easy, but creating shortcuts looking like executable files is difficult. Well now its not, shortcuts can be identified by the small arrow we see in bottom left of the icon. This can be removed and thus giving an impression that the file is running from its original position. Follow this registry setting, and you will have desired results.

  1. Go to Start –> Run, type Regedit.
  2. GO to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ lnkfile (It’s Link File, not Ink File, as many people get confused.)
  3. On the Right pane look for “IsShortcut” and delete this entry.
  4. Reboot and done.

A simple way to remove the shortcut arrow from icon.
