Question about 'Change the Icons of Desktop Items' Monday, October 29, 2001 at 5:17 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Mike Greening (2 messages posted) Hi, I'm trying to remove the My Computer icon using the "half-assed" solution of changing it to a blank icon and then entering a single space for the name. I am using the recommended registry edit procedure on the following page: http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/article02-016 I end up with the Windows default icon as the My Computer icon, and "blank.ico,0", my registry entry, as the name for the icon. I have a blank icon on my hard drive named blank.ico. What am I doing wrong?
