I have searched the Web and there are very few instances of this problem and no solution. I have tried everything I can think of with no success.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI often have to create Shortcuts to executable code. I used Shortcut Extension - Remove or Restore to get Code: SED.exe instead of the Windows 7 default Code: SED.exe - Shortcut as name of the newly created shortcut.
But I would prefer to have just 'SED'. Any way to do this automatically?
I think it might matter that I do not hide extensions ['Hide extensions for known files' (Option in Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options... -> View)].
Somehow I managed to remove the "Desktop" item on the shortcut pane in Explorer - which also affects Common Dialog boxes. It is incredibly annoying as I use this shortcut all the time.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been backing up my computers religiously. I will open another question post about what specifically is recommended for backups but for now, I need to find a way to get rid of this file on my 250GB Seagate FreeAgent drive. I suspect it got there from backing up my computer which is NTFS and onto the FreeAgent Drive, which I suspect is FAT32, and now, I can't delete it. I can't move it or rename it or anything. What ever I do, pops up this warning... (see screenshot)

I ran some software 'Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover' to get rid of shortcut arrowsHowever, it stopped me being able to pin files/progs to the Windows 7 Home Premium taskbar.I removed the program because its more important to me that I can pin programs. However it has now caused a different problem ... with the shortcut iconsAlthough I can now pin programs, the original shortcut arrows on my icons have been replaced by large white rectangles as though the original arrow image cannot be found.I tried deleting the IsShortcut key in the registry and this fixes the look of the icons. However, it stops me pinning again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you create a shortcut in Win 7 the name of the shortcut has the word "shortcut" appended to the end of the name.I simply want to change this so the name "shortcut" is in the beginning of the name. (like in earlier versions of Windows i think).I have found instructions online for adjusting the registry to remove the word "shortcut" totally...but i cant see how to just move it to the beginning.
