UTILITY: Windows Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover 1.0

11 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/utility-windows-vista-shortcut-overlay-remover-1-0.41762/

Windows Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover, aka FxVisor, allows you to either remove or enable the explorer shortcut overlay arrow that is added to all shortcuts. Currently there is no native way to remove the shortcut overlay arrow or to even customize it in Windows Vista, so we have written the Vista Shortcut Overlay Remover utility to enable you to do just that.
