    Every time I delete shortcuts they come back a few minutes later as if I never deleted them


    I can't seem to be able to delete shortcuts on many folders on my sd card inserted into my laptop, it's an SDXC 1TB sd card that I've had in my laptop for months now and haven't had this problem before. A while ago a few shortcuts atarted appearing on many folders in my sd card folders and I don't know what's the cause, every time I tried deleting them it didn't work. The mysterious shortcuts are "My pictures", "My music", "My reports" and "Statements", I have never created those shortcuts but they're everywhere now. Every time I select those shortcuts and press delete on my keyboard they seem

    Explanations for deleted posts?

    Like I said, it makes no sense in letting users see deleted posts, even if they are their own. That's why they were deleted in the first place. If they get to see who specifically deleted it, it only serves one purpose. Lets them bitch.

    Had a Question..it was deleted --.--

    our policy is to delete only spam/inappropriate posts.

    the only person who can "hard delete" posts on the forums is me .. everybody else can just soft-delete the posts, the original author will see those posts in the threads list with a comment why it was deleted.

    to the poster it will look like this, without "manage"
