Help.

Hi lexis1957,

You should be able to delete an icon on your desktop by right-clicking on the icon and, from the drop down menu, select 'delete '.

If you have accidentally deleted your icon of recycle bin and want to replace it, and then follow the instructions on this page of my website:http://vistasupport.mvps.org/accidentally_deleted_recyclebin_icon.htm

This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

  • Is there a way to remove the icons on my desktop without deleting the associated files when right-clicking on the icon does not offer this option?

    Most of the icons that appear on my desk I have download the new application files can be removed without uninstall or remove related files.  But when I right click on the icons that appeared after reinstalling Panda Internet Security and download of Adobe Reader software to date there is no option to remove the icon, there is rather a prompt asking you if I'm sure I want to move the file to the trash - which I did not.  When I look at 'properties', I see that the location for the two is my office.  I'm trying to reduce the visual clutter, is it possible to do?

    Hello

    Click right icon - properties - general tab - Type of file - if it is a LNK then it's only a
    Shortcut and if you DELETE it then only it is removed and the underlying program is not
    affected. To see where the program check the tab shortcut - target:.

    If she is not a LNK and is a. EXE, com, bat and others so if if you delete the file
    (which is not a shortcut) and then the program will not work. Shortcuts usually have ARROWS
    on them in the lower left corner.

    For programs that are stand-a-lone (were copied on the desktop and not installed) you
    can make files elsewhere and copy them (and other parts such as.) DLL or. CFG
    only as examples and some will have no other room) to then remove them from the
    Desktop computer. If you have any programs that were installed on the desktop, you need to uninstall
    them and their re - install elsewhere.

    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.

  • remove the icon of the ListBox?

    I am trying to remove the icon or image of the ListBox, but nothing seems to work? What I am doing wrong?

        var w = new Window ("window");
        lb = w.add ("listbox", [0,0,100,150], ["item1", "item2", "item3"]);
        var btn = w.add ("button");
       
        lb.items[1].icon = File ("~/Desktop/redSquare.jpg");
       
        // None of this is working...
        btn.onClick = function (){
            lb.items[1].icon.remove();
            lb.items[1].image.remove();
            lb.items[1].remove("icon");
            lb.items[1].remove("image");
            lb.remove("image", items[1]);
            lb.remove("icon", items[1]);
            lb.remove(items[1].icon);
            lb.remove(items[1].image);
            }
       
        w.show();

    Yes apparently once the item has an icon specified, you cannot "unspecify" it (lb.items [1] .icon = null; or lb.items [1] .icon = void (0); > error).

    You can remove all items and re-create them with the necessary icons, or none.

    Another possibility is to create an empty icon (completely transparent) the same size of the other:

    var

    f = new File ("" ~ / Desktop/redSquare.jpg ' ").

    g = new file ("" ~ / Desktop/transparentSquare.png ' ").

    w = (this instanceof Panel)? this: new window ('window'),

    lb = w.add ("listbox", [0,0,100,150], ["item1", "item2", 'item3']),

    BTN = w.add ('iconbutton', not defined, f, {style: 'toolbutton', toggle: true});

    btn.onClick = function() {}

    for (var k = 0; k)<3; k++)="" lb.items[k].icon="(this.value)" f="" :="">

    };

    BTN. Notify();

    (o instanceof window)? w.Show (): w.layout.layout (true);

    How to remove safely remove the icon of the DVD RW AD ATA device optiarc 7561 taskbar for windows vista

    Hello Mark G,.

    I think that Christopher was referring to right click on the remove safely icon on the taskbar and choosing then to remove it safely.

    Otherwise, this may be a feature of the device driver and the device manufacturer may be able to tell how.

    I managed to remove the icon to display all open windows one behind the other.  Where can I find it now?

    Hello

    Which, in my view, that you have a problem with, it's called windows Flip 3D!

    Try this first and see how you go...

    1. To turn on the Quick Launch bar, follow these steps:
    2. Right-click anywhere on an empty spot on the taskbar.
    3. Choose toolbars from the menu that appears.
    4. Select Quick Launch in the following menu so that it is checked.

    You should then be able to click the icon to switch between Windows now and use the 3d Flip...

    Or

    . Right click on the Quick Launch toolbar, but not on an icon
    2. Select the folder from the context menu. It will take you to the Quick Launch folder that should live:

    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

    3. right click in an empty area of this folder
    4. Select new, then shortcut from the context menu
    5. for the location text box, enter the following text:

    C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe dwmapi #105

    6. click on the next button
    7. appoint. (Flip3D, for example)
    8. click on finish

    The shortcut will now be in your Quick Launch toolbar.
