How do I modify the shortcut arrow?

A. Perform the registry change as described below to modify the arrowused on shortcuts

The above change would then take effect at next logon.

To avoid the logoff you could modify an icon related entry, make the screenrepaint by changing the background and set back, e.g. HKEY_CURRENT_USERControlPanelDesktopWindowMetricsShell Icon Size.

If the Shell Icons29 value does not exist then you will need to create theShell Icons branch and then create the 29 value of type String, told you thatyour hands would get dirty

A better way is to use TweakUI to perform the above arrow change.
