Removing shortcut icon arrow is one of the easiest and most needed hack for a starter geek for Windows.<\/p>\n

Removing it via registry is a simple trik..goto lnkfile–>del isshortcut key.<\/p>\n

this thing was ok till Win Vista. but if you delete this key in Windows 7<\/span> …. there may be occasional error where user cannot drag and drop an application program to Windows Taskbar (Superbar) and Start Menu anymore, with the icon shows a red cross when user attempts to place it on Taskbar or Start Menu. When right click on a program icon or shortcut, the \u201cPin to Taskbar\u201d and \u201cPin to Start Menu\u201d context menu is missing and not showing too.<\/span><\/p>\n

You may also find an error that no Jump List been popped up when right clicking on icons in Taskbar.<\/p>\n

Infact you may also find an error http:\/\/www.merawindows.com\/Forums\/tabid\/324\/forumid\/96\/threadid\/42169\/scope\/posts\/Default.aspx<\/a><\/p>\n

i tried to figure out a lot about the solution.infact i even reinstalled os..(tx 2 win7 it took hardly half hour 2 get evrthng back 2 normal)….and 2day i found that the same problem has rose again…<\/p>\n

and then after some r n d<\/strong> i found the cause of the problem.<\/p>\n

So following are the effects of deleting Regsitry key “isshortcut” in windows 7<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

if u wana restore 2 all normal…simple add the isshortcut(new string) in the .lnk file…this will get back all things 2 work…<\/p>\n

Windows Registry<\/span> Editor Version 5.00<\/span><\/code><\/strong><\/p>\n

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\lnkfile]
@=\u201dShortcut\u201d
\u201cIsShortcut\u201d=\u201d\"<\/code><\/strong><\/p>\n

or paste the abve code in bold in a text file and save it as .reg and then execute that.<\/code><\/strong><\/p>\n

n 4 tech guyz still u wana remove the thingy??<\/p>\n

use the following code…<\/p>\n

Windows Registry<\/span> Editor Version 5.00<\/span><\/p>\n

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Shell Icons]
“29”=hex(2):25,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,72,00,6f,00,6f,00,74,00,\\
25,00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,73,00,68,\\
00,65,00,6c,00,6c,00,33,00,32,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,2c,00,35,00,30,00,\\
00,00<\/strong><\/p>\n

this will fade the shortcut arrow and make it transparent.this way also works out.
<\/span><\/p>\n

Well ques can b….is it a bug or a feature in Windows 7<\/span>…being it specific 2 only windows 7<\/span>…???<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
