    Single vs double arrows on lower left of Windows desktop icons


    Windows 10 Pro version:

    Version 2004 Build 19041.572

    What is the difference between these two arrows? One is a double 'arrow' or pointers. The other one is a large curved arrow. Here's what they look like.

    Windows 10 two small curved arrows in lower left corner of desktop icons?

    Most (not all) of desktop icons now have two small curved arrows in the lower left corner, although most shortcut icons still have a single arrow there. These new arrows popped up for .jpg, .pdf, Word and Excel files on the desktop. What happened and why?
