Desktop Icons without Text


Recommended Posts

For MY COMPUTER and MY NETWORK PLACES, how do I disable the FOLDER VIEW settings? Everytime I open them, it goes to FOLDER VIEW layout. And for the RECYCLE BIN, I can't drag an item into it anymore. Any fix for these problems?

EDIT:

I removed the tag "/e," from this line and it worked, no longer in folder view ;)

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000000-5000-0000-0000-000000000002}\Shell\Open\Command]@="explorer.exe /n, /e, ::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"

Still no idea how to make the recycle bin drag and droppable though. :(

I am pretty sick at the moment (Sinusitis) and I don't spend much time behind my computer, but if you want them fast, read my previous posts and try to create them.

A few posts back I posted a link to a program that can help you. :))

If you don't have multiple user profiles on your computer, you can use the "Add Recycle Bin.reg" from the first post, you can drag & drop stuff in it. :D

so when I open this file and right click merge for each one.. the names will go away?

has anyone tried this out?

The reg files in the first post are the fixed ones,... the don't remove the name from My Computer ect but they create new nameless icons on your Desktop.

Just try it and if you don't like it just use the remove... reg files.

Thanks,.. and welcome to Neowin! :D

I searched the internet for "command line parameters" for the executables.

Alot of programs don't use command line paramete:(. :(

Sometimes you can use a program that uses them to launch another program (like the one I used with the Winamp Icon).

Herby . . . great work ...

nothing more to say ....? :D

Hey lysar,.. thanks ... and welkome to Neowin! :D

[/Herby]

I'm still sick but I'm well enough to work on some of the requests... :)

When you want one without an enhanced context menu (most of the programs don't use command line parameters), you can try to create it with Shell Object Editor (see Post #182).

When you really want one with an enhanced context menu, just PM me.

I get alot of PM's about the theme, icons and wallpaper that I used in the first post.

You can find all the info you need here. :happy:

hey, hope u get well soon, i really suck at computer stuff mostly so if you do happen to get a little free time all i would request is an icon for opera. thanks!

:D

    • To give context to everybody, I bought about 2 sets of RAM, ddr4, 3200, 64 gb, 2 years ago. It costed me 150 usd for each set. If you buy RAM now you only incentivate companies to sell you expensive stuff, as Nvidia did.
    • KillerPDF 1.4.2 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.4.2 changelog: What's new PDF form filling. Interactive PDF forms now render their fields (text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons) as live controls. Fill them in directly and save — field values are written back into the PDF. PDF outline (bookmark) navigation. A new OUTLINES tab in the sidebar displays the document's bookmark tree. Click any entry to jump to that page. The sidebar auto-fits its width to the longest entry on open and can be dragged wider; switching back to PAGES snaps to the pages-mode width. Fixed Page rotation no longer reverts after saving. Rotations applied via the sidebar context menu now persist correctly through the save pipeline. Copied text words were out of order on PDFs where glyphs are stored in non-reading order (Issue #66). Text extraction now sorts words by position and uses a dynamic line-grouping threshold so both drag-select and Select All produce correctly ordered output. PDFs with malformed or non-standard XRef tables now open in read-only mode instead of showing "Invalid entry in XRef table" and failing entirely.

    • "...a low price of just $340..." I don't think it means what you think it means.
    • This Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 32GB RAM with RGB is a great deal for limited time by Sayan Sen Memory prices have been through the roof for a while, though it seems like things might finally be getting better.

    • The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.
