  • Cannot remove desktop icon in Windows Vista

    I can't remove an icon of a document word on my desk. I first saved this file on my desk and he settled in a folder under "documents". Now, when I try dragging the icon remains on the desktop into the trash or select DELETE from the drop-down below, I get an error message that says "file not found." I tried to put the file on my desktop, but only another shortcut - creates a shortcut that I am able to remove. How can I delete the icon? I wouldn't mind deleting the document if necessary.

    Try one of the following two products: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.phpUnlocker.  These programs tend to work when the standard functions of delete Windows Vista do not make the case.

    I hope this helps.

  • After uninstalling a program cannot remove the icon on the desktop

    After you uninstall a program, I stayed with the icon on my desktop. I tried to remove the icon, but I couldn't. I got an error message saying it did not find the program so could not delete the message icon. I ran across this error often and would like some comments on how to remove icons or everything that's left after you have removed (uninstalled) a program, thanks.

    The easiest way is to reinstall the program > removes 1 icon > then uninstall the program again.

    See you soon.

  • Cannot remove the icon of the printer generic devices and printers

    Title: Removing 'generic icon' page devices and printers in Control Panel

    I had reinstalled a HP Photosmart Premium printer and it worked last night, but this morning, I discovered that I was not able to print to the printer (the option for this printer was not available).

    I went to the control panel and the page devices and printers and clicked on "add a printer". However, I accidentally created a generic icon (printer, Scanner, copier) on this page.  I then added my printer and the icon that it is now on the page, but the generic icon is still there.  When I select this icon, I don't seem to be able to remove.

    It could be that this is a transient condition, but it's still annoying to have this icon (which is now useless).  What can I do?

    Hello

    I suggest you follow the steps to remove the printer and install the printer wirelessly from the link and check if the problem persists.

  • Cannot remove the white icons next to bookmarks

    Recently updated to Firefox 3.x to 15 (I know, but 4 + is terrible IMO). Anyway - I want to delete the favicons next to bookmarks in the Bookmarks tab AND toolbar, and it doesn't seem to be possible. Currently they all display a vacuum instead of the icons themselves dotted box. It seems to do this fix for older versions (http://www.ghacks.net/2009/05/11/how-to-remove-favicons-in-firefox-bookmarks/) will remove the icon and keep the new to be added but will NOT remove this annoying box.

  • Outlook Express 6 is the e-mail client 'default' in Works 8.5, can remove this icon and or replaced by Outlook 2003 or the 'other' no matter what version of outlook?

    Hi all

    I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 desktop running Windows XP Pro. It has Microsoft Works 8.5, which contains a reference to Outlook Express 6 icon, so that it can be launched from inside Works 8.5.

    I use NO Outlook Express 6, because I have Outlook 2003 AND Outlook 2007, can I use on it instead, if I want to - which I am not at the moment.

    Anyone in this community know if it is possible to remove the icon from Outlook Express 6 to Works 8.5.

    (and possibly 'replace' the icon with one for Outlook 2003 so that THIS 2003 version opens instead?)

    There is no icon in Add/Remove programs for Outlook Express, or y at - it one in the "all programs" list. Is it possible to uninstall Outlook Express Windows XP completely somehow so that it does not Works 8.5 launch when a user clicks on its ' icon?

    This version of Outlook Express does not work anyway (I tried to set up accounts in there, but they do not work even with the correct details) so it's wasting space on this little hard drive.

    I want to be able to implement this old pc - that works fine as long as I accept his ' limits (Intel Celeron 2.4 Ghz single core cpu, 2 GB of Ram, 80 GB HDD)-for the nephews and my 11 years old 7yr to use it safely for the duties of the school, (I have a copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica 2006) , basic base 'games for kids' Web site, when they come to visit. My nephews have not much experience pc anyway and have no interest in the emails.

    There is no other applications on it (which were not ' provided with Window XP Pro") for the moment, outside Works 8.5 and Windows Live nephews will have access to.

    Norton Internet Security 2012, Norton Utilities, Norton go back 4.2 and control Parental Norton will be also created on this pc with Admin access only.

    Otherwise, anyone here know of any 'other' app is similar to 8.5 Works that have the same characteristics of the task/project based - but without email - that I could use instead, which would continue to operate on an old XP pc?

    I would greatly appreciate any ideas or advice from someone who wants to give it.

    Thank you!

    Bob

    I can probably only partially help because I've never used Outlook or works.
     
    Outlook Express is a part of XP, so it cannot be deleted, and probably, it takes less space than Norton.
     
    Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. Add/Remove Windows components. Find Outlook Express and uncheck the box.
     
    Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. Set Program Access and Defaults. Custom + down arrow | Select the option for Outlook 2003.
     
    Start with that and see where you are.

  • I can't remove an icon to a non-existent program in Control Panel.

    I have Windows Vista Home Edition and completely removed all vestiges of any Apple software on my computer, but I still have a generic now left "MobileMe" Apple icon in my control panel!

    When I click on 'Open', I get a pop up window that says "Application not found". When I make a shortcut to the icon of CP and then right-click on properties > change icon, I get "Windows cannot find the file C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\bin\AppleSyncPref.exe.

  • Removal of icons on blackBerry Smartphones

    Is there a way to remove - rather than simply hide - icons on my home screen?  Also is there a way to make the application to remove its icon when remove you / uninstall the application? Thank you!

    Hello

    the icons on the home screen is for convinence, and cannot be deleted by default icons (messages, contacts, etc.) from the home screen, but two things that you can do is:

    1. in the main screen, move the folders that you need in the front row while it will appear on the home screen.

    2 delete some folders (for example Instant Messaging) going to applications to the list of the main application.

    Also when you delete an application, the icon will also be deleted, otherwise, they try to battery pull.

    It will clear the contents of the cache.
