Hi there,
As you can see in the attached picture there is a blue color background on the name of the desktop shortcuts. How to remove this. (Should I say Plzzzzz ?)

It must be possible somehow, some of the Windows XP standard background picktures have it that way... I don't know, how they do it however.

Guys, The default way of the background color should be transparent, right?
I don't know, how It came like this.but as I remember some thing related to "Copy to clipboard" makes it. Sounds crazy?
Anyway this is not a big issue, but there should be a solution to make it transparent.

Yes, the default is transparent. I've looked every place that I can think of (including Tweak UI), but can't find such a setting. Is it really true that all of the icons on your desktop look like that, or is it just the selected one?

OK do as i say
Go to system properties
Open Advanced Tab
Click Advance in performance frame (1st Button) (A list will open)
Check all of the checkboxes and see the result the background will vanished.
Try only checking "Smooth edges of screen fonts"

I didn't select it bartonc. :D
All the names on my desktop Shortcuts, folders, Files are like this.
Still I couldn't find out a way to set this up back to Normal.

regardless the fact if the Shortcut is in the All Users\Desktop or

I'm using the following script to find a shortcut with a specific string in it. In the code below the example is the word "font"
My problem is that this code looks everywhere EXCEPT the individual users desktop - it does find all of the shortcuts in All Users, but not in specific users.
I am executing the code AS the user whose desktop I need to search so there shouldn't be a security issue.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
