    How can I Actualize Explorer Icons in VB? (If I change the Shortcut arrow, Explorer does'nt apply it even if I restart the PC...)

    How can I force Windows to actualize??

    To Remove those little Shortcut Arrows from all the Icons, make these Registry Modifications:

    Remove the value: IsShortcut From the Keys..

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile
    and
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\piffile

    Then Reboot.
