    Desktop Icons have padlock symbol

    W10 21H1 (Hope this is correct sub-forum) For the past month all new files I save to desktop have a padlock icon on top right, all files more than a month old do not have this.

    I can open, edit etc., without issue, but why is this happening. Is it to do with permissions …. I am owner & admin, this is a solo PC not part of any group. I have noticed that if I 'right-click' on files with the padlock ther is an option "File Ownership > personal" and personal shows an open 'blue lock symbol'

    If I select this symbol it then removes the 'padlock' So I'm guessing there is a glocal persmissions set wrongly somehere ? I did try a search here … found the following thread …. But when I go to RegEdit there is no entry for Shell Icons, so I followed step to put in new entry & string value ….. but it has made no difference Change or Remove Lock Icon on Encrypted Files in Windows 10

    Padlock Symbol!

    Could you please clarify if this padlock symbol refers to (1) voice connections and (2) internet connections?
