    File Explorer: Photo icons in View mode contain check mark


    When I move photos from my android phone to my PC they appear with a VERY ANNOYING check mark on the lower left corner when I view them as "icons - I go to the view tab and select large or very large icons


    I want to get rid of these. In fact I never want to see them. They cover 1/4 of the picture, and that makes selecting specific ones to open rather difficult when pictures are similar. I want to be able to look at a whole group of large photo icons at once, not have to view them individually!!


    How do I get rid of these check marks. They are NOT the result of me selecting something, they are there on ALL of my photos ALL THE TIME.

    :)

    Removing OneDrive Green Check Mark Icons in Windows 10 file explorer


    Hi,
    Does anyone know if one can remove the green check marks in file explorer that indicate that a file is synced on OneDrive?
    If one is using list, details or small icon view, there is no way to visually see the file type.
    Thanks, Paul
