Two icons, with the same name, "desktop.ini" have appeared on my desktop and
when I open it, this is what the larger one shows. The smaller one has only
one entry. I assume they are shortcuts although there is no indication that
they are.
[.ShellClassInfo
]LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21769
IconResource=%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-183
[LocalizedFileNames]
Spider Solitaire.lnk=@%SystemRoot%\system32\gameux.dll,-10061
FreeCell.lnk=@%SystemRoot%\system32\gameux.dll,-10055
Windows Explorer.lnk=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-22067
Windows Mail.lnk=@%ProgramFiles%\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe,-225
What I think happened is that I put a number of programmes on the task bar,
immediately to the right of the Windows logo, and perhaps this is the
information as to the location of these programmes. Are these shortcuts and,
if so, can I delete them?
As I went back to check on the items, I also found another "desktop.ini"
file in my Documents Folder - it is different from the above two. What is
the proper location of these files?
Thanks,
