    remove icons


    My grandson accidentally copied more than 10000 photo's to my startup desktop. Is there a way to remove them without doing it manually, one by one? I tried todo a System Restore but each failed with the message "failed to extract the original copy of the directory from the restore point An unspecified error occurred during System Restore. 0x8007045b.

    :)

  2. Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.

    How to remove the icons after uninstal(deleting) gpu-z from notification area?

    The issue is that there is no mechanism to remove individual icons from that list.

    Only clear the whole list (which is what your VBS script does).

    All programs have the same issue
