    Erroneous symbols at the bottom left corner of desktop icons

    I'm running Windows 10 with the latest updates. A few days ago, the icons for objects on the desktop changed appearance. The icons are correct but
    all have a symbol at the bottom left corner:

    • Shortcuts show the correct shortcut symbol
    • All files erroneously show a shortcut symbol
    • Almost all folders erroneously show a shortcut symbol
    • Some folders erroneously show "X"

    The icons for files and folders (including the Desktop folder) displayed using File Explorer are all normal.

    I would appreciate any suggestions.

    Settings Wifi Button is Off but Connection is Available - Lost Yellow Warning Symbol

    Use to be that in Settings -> if Wireless button was ‘Off’ there would be a yellow

    warning symbol indicating that Wifi Connection was “Off”.



    However, in the past day, or so, I notice that the Settings Wireless - On/Off
    - button is continually on “Off” and yet despite this Wifi Connection On/off does not show a yellow caution symbol, and I can switch Wifi Connection ‘On or Off’ when I like.



    I prefer the connection accessibility the way it use to be because this way I am assured that wireless was off (at least I hope it is)

    I prefer to see the yellow caution symbol while WIFI settings is “Off”.



    Need a suggestion.



    Thanks

    Desktop Arrow Symbols

    The arrow symbol in your screen capture is the standard arrow for a shortcut, it does not mean compression !!
