IconTweak : Remove the shortcut arrow from your shortcut icons by turning to this lightweight application that doesn't need to be installed on your PC

In depth

A closer look at IconTweak

If you own a computer that runs the Windows operating system, it's highly probable that you wished to tweak some of the visual components more than once but didn't have a clue how to do so or where should you look for a fix.Fortunately, as time passed, the variety of tweaking applications increased so that nowadays we have various programs that were specially designed to solve some our wildest requests. One of these applications is IconTweak.

Removes shortcut arrow

There's no way that you didn't see the rather annoying shortcut arrow that's proudly showcased on top of every icon of the shortcuts you create. This application has a specific purpose: getting rid of that pestering arrow once and for all.However, if you're not really comfortable with removing the arrow permanently, this app's still got you covered; you can bring it back as easily as you removed it in the first place, by pressing a couple of buttons in the main window.

Simplistic interface

It is worth mentioning that the application doesn't need to be installed on the target computer since simply launching its executable should grant you full access over its whole "array" of features.The interface it provides you with is simple enough that it can be used by virtually any user who knows how to drag a mouse and click its buttons. It only has 4 buttons that can be used to hide the arrow, show it, apply the current settings profile and exit the app.

Simplistic app to remove shortcut arrows

All in all, if you're sick of seeing that annoying little arrow every time you create a shortcut, you can safely use IconTweak to get rid of it. However, note that this application doesn't appear to run on newer systems, as we tested it on Windows 10 and hiding the shortcut arrow triggered no response.
