    What the hell are these stupid icons on the bottom left of my applications and folders?? They have been bugging me for months now and just appeared randomly? This computer is still new and when I first booted it up it had no annoying icons on the bottom left of my apps and folders but one day they just appeared. Is there a way I can hide them?

    STUPID ICONS UGH

    How to make a Uber Hidden Folder

    • Make a new folder.
    • Change the icon to a blank icon. No icon should appear
    • Rename the folder to a blank by pressing "alt + 255." (NOTE: Press 255 on the numpad) No text should appear.
    • Your done! It is uber hidden. *Big Grin Annoying Icons on the bottom left of my applications and folders :D

    Change Folder Icon in Windows 10


    I just acquired a new laptop running Windows 10 and am trying to change the icons of the folders in the StartUp "Program" folder so that they would stand out a little better. I used my admin account and followed all the steps listed above, but when I clicked on "Apply", nothing happened. The same basic windows folder icon remained attached to the folder. I also tried to go into Properties and capitalize some of the folder names, but that didn't work either. Looks like something is protecting them, but I cannot figure out what it is much less how to get around this blockage, Any suggestions?
