    Blue Arrows on folder and file icons

    Original title :- Blue Arrows on icons

    After clean install of Windows 10 build 10565 folders and files on the drives have Blue Arrows on icons. One solution I found is to disable - compression . Then one compromises with the disk space . How to get rid of these arrows? These arrows has no relation
    with Norton in this build's scenario. Build has this bug.

    Blue Arrows on folder and file icons

    Blue arrows on app & file icons normally indicate it is a shortcut, could you post a 'Snip' of some icons in question????
