Removing the My Documents icon from the Desktop in 2003


Recommended Posts

I'm at a loss on this one.

All the discussion seems to be about renaming, or redirecting the "My Documents" icon.

I don't want to do that, I just want to remove it from the desktop.

I found some discussion on how to do that in XP, but that key doesn't seem to exist in 2003. The closest key to it, works wonderfully... Except it removes the IE icon from the desktop, not the "My Documents" icon.

Anyone have any idea what key I'm looking for? Or if there is a simpler way to do it?

use regshot to see what key it is

open reg shot, and take a 'shot' then do properties on desktop, desktop, customize, untick mydocs, click ok

take 2nd shot, then compare..
