Second question: I see the little arrow is back on most of the desktop
icons. How do I remove this again?


See

Or download and use Winaerotweaker at

But I recommend that you do not do this. The arrow serves a useful
purpose: identifying a shortcut and differentiating one from other types
of files. Get rid of the arrows and you run the risk of someday deleting
an important file, thinking it was just a shortcut.


Thanks, Ken. I have decided to follow your advice. Windows used to
prompt about deleting a file vs. a shortcut, but it appears that no
longer happens.

The arrow does annoy my somewhat OCD mind, however....

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.
