i think tweakui does that.

Me I just right click desktop - properties - uncheck show desktop icons - hides all of them.
Start11 - Customize the Start Menu and Taskbar in Windows 10/11.

TweakUI screwed all my icons - They strangely became 16 color.


What version of Windows are you using. Tweak UI is for XP SP1 or higher and Windows Server 2003 only.
If you are using XP SP1 or higher, I can't see how or why Tweak UI would mess up your icons since it is made
by Microsoft.

If you are running Windows XP Pro, you can use a group policy - found by using "Run > gpedit.msc > Enter > User Config > Administrative Templates > Desktop Icons > enable Hide Recycle Bin.

XP SP2 here.

Oh yeah, right. I CAN see how Tweak UI would mess up my icons since it is made
by Microsoft. I've never had a good experience with MS software.
