Remove shortcut arrows without adding problem

How to remove shortcut arrows without creating any problems viewing or pinning stuff like "IsShortcut" in Windows 7?

Simply make the overlay transparent "arrow" icon added to the desktop shortcuts.

Before performing this manip, it should recreate the key IsShortcut if it was previously deleted!

To do this we must add a registry key:

* Go to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Icons
* Add a new string value named 29
* Give the value %systemroot%\system32\shell32.dll,50
* Apply Flushcode to refresh the cache icons
* If the change is not immediate, restart the PC

Or you can use the command via a command prompt in administrator mode.

Enter the following in the prompt:

REG ADD “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Icons” /v 29 /d %SystemRoot%\System32\shell32.dll,50 /f
