1. Run the Registry Editor (Regedit) to open the hkey_classes_root \ lnkfile branch.

Method 4: cainiao-level or "lazy"-delete the arrow.
Right-click the blank area on the desktop and select "properties" from the pop-up menu ". In the displayed Properties window, select the appearance tab, click Advanced, and click the drop-down arrow in the project to select the icon ", in this case, the "size" option is changed from Gray to available. The value is the default value of "32" in windows. Change this value to "30" or smaller, but not less than 24, click the "OK" button below. Okay. Go back to the desktop and check if the arrow on the shortcut is missing? The desktop is much more neat, and this method is much faster than modifying the registry.
