No Alt+255 or Alt+0160 -> No Text selection box when you select an Icon
Enhanced Context Menu's -> You can run several commands with one Icon
You can add them to the Start Menu (Pinned Programs List)
You can use them in a dock with working Context Menu's
No exta application running in the background
Easy Installation & Uninstallation
Install: Merge the "Add" regs from the Icons that you want to use (double click & click on yes) and Refresh your Desktop + copy NirCmd.* to your Windows or System32 directory.
NirCmd is a great little free Command Line Tool (it does'nt run in the background) and it's included in the zip file.
Uninstall: Merge the "Remove" regs and Refresh your Desktop + delete NirCmd.* from your Windows or System32 directory.
Important: When you have Multiple User Profiles on your Computer, you can use "Add Recycle Bin MUP.reg", this Recycle Bin is fully functional but it doesn't change his Icon when it's full.
"Add Recycle Bin.reg" modifies some values from the Recycle Bin's CLSID and applies to all User Profiles!
Don't use reg files that are older than the reg files in the zip file below! (fixed some MUP issues)
If you have merged older versions of these files, run "Remove all.bat" first and then merge the "Add" reg files.

Wiredbits has created a neat little program: SCCU (Shorcut Clean Up).
With this program you can create Textless Desktop Icons and Shortcuts with Enhanced Context Menu's.
You can drag and drop files, shortcuts, drives or folders on the drop icon and the Menu Names, the Internal Names and the Commands are generated from the drop action (98% of the time).
It's a beta version but it's working great,.. and best of all: it's free!
If you notice any bugs or have suggestions you can post them here.

You can change the Icons, the location, the tooltip and the name of the Icons with Shell Object Editor (right click and select Expert Mode) or by editing the reg files (see Tutorial).
Redllar has created a great free gui based reg file editor and viewer: Regpad.
With Regpad, you can view and edit the expandable string values (see the Tutorial for more info).
Add the Icons to a Dock: If you use a dock, you can use the reg files included in ACM_Dock.zip, these reg files will add the Icons to "Entire Network" instead of to the Desktop (see _ReadMe.txt for info about how to add them to your Dock).
If you have the Icons on the Desktop, first run "Remove All.bat" and then merge the "Add" regs from the Icons that you want to use.
Add the Icons to the Start Menu: Download ACM_Dock.zip and merge the "Add" regs from the icons that you want to use.
Open the "Entire Network" folder (My Network Places -> Entire Network) and drag the icons into the Start Menu.
